Pycnonotus barbatus
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Kruger National Park, aggregated onto a 25 km grid. A cell is matched by its centre, which can sit up to 16 km outside the boundary, so this covers the surrounding country too.
Occurrence records measure where people looked and found something, which is not the same as where the animal is. This is a relative likelihood, not a probability.
Records exist for January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December. A quiet month can mean the animal was absent, or that nobody was looking.
A grid cell is a square of the map, not a sighting: 29 squares of 25 km carry records for Common Bulbul in and around Kruger National Park, and the 52,989 records behind them were collected by other people and published openly. Nothing here counts animals, and a place with more records is not always a place with more animals.
Kruger National Park, iSimangaliso Wetland Park and uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park are among the 23 atlas places where the Common Bulbul is recorded. Its records concentrate most heavily in South Africa, Kenya, Uganda, Zimbabwe and Zambia. The atlas holds about 379,000 open records of this bird from 19 countries, and the map reflects where these records gather.
Of the 119 species with an atlas page recorded in and around Kruger National Park, the Common Bulbul is the 4th most recorded.
