Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Red-breasted Coua sighting in Mantadia National Park on a given day, based on 95 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 56th most-seen of the 98 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
November
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Red-breasted Coua in Mantadia National Park on a given day, against about 10% in May–July and October, the lowest months. January to April have too few records to rate.
Between 6 and 9 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Red-breasted Coua sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Mantadia National Park, in our data
Mantadia National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Red-breasted Coua sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Coua
The closest relatives of the Red-breasted Coua that you can see in Mantadia National Park (genus Coua, Couas) are Blue Coua (about 50%) and Red-fronted Coua (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Red-breasted Coua is recorded against all the birds logged in Mantadia National Park (95 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.
