Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Harmony Satyr sighting in Chirripó National Park on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 24th most-seen of the 127 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March and December
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Harmony Satyr in Chirripó National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April and June–October, the lowest months. Those are among Chirripó National Park's driest months, with about 120 mm of rain a month against 690 mm in October.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Harmony Satyr sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Harmony Satyr sightings, Chirripó National Park has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve (Costa Rica, about 10%) and Arenal Volcano National Park (Costa Rica, under 5%).

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Harmony Satyr is recorded against all the insects logged in Chirripó National Park (19 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.
