Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Cassin's Honeyguide sighting in Semuliki National Park on a given day, based on 17 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 186th most-seen of the 280 birds we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.

3rd of 4

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cassin's Honeyguide is recorded against all the birds logged in Semuliki National Park (17 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.
