Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Cassin's Flycatcher sighting in Murchison Falls National Park on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 332nd most-seen of the 424 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to under 5%, and over a week to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Cassin's Flycatcher in Murchison Falls National Park on a given day, against under 5% in July to May, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Cassin's Flycatcher sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
6th of 6
Of the 6 parks where we can rate Cassin's Flycatcher sightings, Murchison Falls National Park ranks 6th at under 5%. The best odds are in Taï National Park (Ivory Coast, about 20%), Bwindi Impenetrable National Park (Uganda, about 10%) and Kibale National Park (Uganda, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cassin's Flycatcher is recorded against all the birds logged in Murchison Falls National Park (15 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.
