Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Red Cabbage Bug sighting in Barcelona on a given day, based on 257 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 23rd most-seen of the 381 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.
July
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Red Cabbage Bug in Barcelona on a given day, against under 5% in December and January, the lowest months.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Red Cabbage Bug sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 23 cities where we can rate Red Cabbage Bug sightings, Barcelona ranks 2nd at about 20%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Jerusalem (Israel, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Red Cabbage Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Barcelona (257 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.
