With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Green Crombec sighting in Queen Elizabeth National Park on a given day, based on 79 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 210th most-seen of the 434 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green Crombec is recorded against all the birds logged in Queen Elizabeth National Park (79 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.
