Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Common Jery sighting in Mantadia National Park on a given day, based on 203 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 37th most-seen of the 98 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May
In that month about 50% of wildlife watchers report a Common Jery in Mantadia National Park on a given day, against about 20% in June–July and December, the lowest months. That is one of Mantadia National Park's driest months, with about 80 mm of rain against 340 mm in January. January to April have too few records to rate.
Between 5 and 8 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Common Jery sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
4th of 4

Same genus: Neomixis

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Jery is recorded against all the birds logged in Mantadia National Park (203 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.
