Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Evergreen-forest Warbler sighting in Ngorongoro Conservation Area on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 505th most-seen of the 519 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to under 5%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Evergreen-forest Warbler in Ngorongoro Conservation Area on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Evergreen-forest Warbler sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
5th of 5
Of the 5 parks where we can rate Evergreen-forest Warbler sightings, Ngorongoro Conservation Area ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Arusha National Park (Tanzania, about 10%), Mkomazi National Park (Tanzania, about 10%) and Bwindi Impenetrable National Park (Uganda, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Evergreen-forest Warbler is recorded against all the birds logged in Ngorongoro Conservation Area (5 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.
