When is the best time to see a Sooty Copper in Camargue?

June

In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Sooty Copper in Camargue on a given day, against under 5% in November to May, the lowest months.

What time of day is best to see a Sooty Copper?

Between 10 am and 1 pm

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Sooty Copper sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

Where does the Sooty Copper sighting chance come from?

GBIF citizen-science records

It is estimated from how often the Sooty Copper is recorded against all the insects logged in Camargue (13 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.
