Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Correndera Pipit sighting in Tierra del Fuego National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 71st most-seen of the 78 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Correndera Pipit in Tierra del Fuego National Park on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season. June has too few records to rate.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Correndera Pipit sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 4
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Correndera Pipit sightings, Tierra del Fuego National Park ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Torres del Paine National Park (Chile, about 10%), Península Valdés (Argentina, under 5%) and Nahuel Huapi National Park (Argentina, under 5%).
Same order: Passeriformes
The closest relatives of the Correndera Pipit that you can see in Tierra del Fuego National Park (order Passeriformes, Perching Birds) are Patagonian Sierra-Finch (about 90%), Austral Thrush (about 90%) and Rufous-collared Sparrow (about 80%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Correndera Pipit is recorded against all the birds logged in Tierra del Fuego National Park (7 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.
