📅 Monthly Probability

📊

Fewer than 5 records of Forest Woodhoopoe at Kibale National Park — not enough to chart months honestly.

🕐 When They’re Spotted

🕐

Sightings of Forest Woodhoopoe are recorded here, but fewer than 5 of them carry a time of day in GBIF — sighting probability uses whole days, so it is unaffected. The hourly pattern needs timestamps we don't have yet.

Global Distribution

Where this species is recorded worldwide. Restricted to human observations from 2019 onwards — the same kind of record and the same period the probabilities on this page are built from, so collar-tracking studies, camera-trap arrays and museum specimens are excluded. Around Santa Rosa that removes 5,924 GPS fixes from a handful of tagged jaguars.
