Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Snowy-browed Flycatcher sighting in Manas National Park on a given day, based on 37 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 260th most-seen of the 377 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Snowy-browed Flycatcher in Manas National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February–October and December, the lowest months. Those are among Manas National Park's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain a month against 1070 mm in June.
Between 2 and 5 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Snowy-browed Flycatcher sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
6th of 11
Of the 11 parks where we can rate Snowy-browed Flycatcher sightings, Manas National Park ranks 6th at under 5%. The best odds are in Kerinci Seblat National Park (Indonesia, about 40%), Doi Inthanon National Park (Thailand, about 30%) and Kinabalu Park (Malaysia, about 30%).
Same genus: Ficedula
The closest relatives of the Snowy-browed Flycatcher that you can see in Manas National Park (genus Ficedula, Ficedula Flycatchers) are Taiga Flycatcher (about 20%) and Little Pied Flycatcher (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Snowy-browed Flycatcher is recorded against all the birds logged in Manas National Park (37 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
