Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Florentine Woolcarder Bee sighting in Athens on a given day, based on 52 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 17th most-seen of the 242 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and July
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Florentine Woolcarder Bee in Athens on a given day, against under 5% in October to April, the lowest months. Those are among Athens's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain a month against 85 mm in December.
Between 3 and 6 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Florentine Woolcarder Bee sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 22 cities where we can rate Florentine Woolcarder Bee sightings, Athens has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come Turin (Italy, about 20%) and Ankara (Turkey, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Florentine Woolcarder Bee is recorded against all the insects logged in Athens (52 verified sightings), 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.
