Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Striated Yuhina sighting in Royal Manas National Park on a given day, based on 320 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 48th most-seen of the 388 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Striated Yuhina in Royal Manas National Park on a given day, against about 10% in January–February and November, the lowest months. August and September have too few records to rate.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Striated Yuhina sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Striated Yuhina sightings, Royal Manas National Park has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come Namdapha National Park (India, about 10%) and Kaeng Krachan National Park (Thailand, under 5%).
Same family: Zosteropidae
The closest relatives of the Striated Yuhina that you can see in Royal Manas National Park (family Zosteropidae, White-eyes, Yuhinas, and Allies) are Indian White-eye (about 40%), Black-chinned Yuhina (about 30%) and Whiskered Yuhina (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Striated Yuhina is recorded against all the birds logged in Royal Manas National Park (320 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.
