Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Canara Swift sighting in Bengaluru on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 329th most-seen of the 477 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
October to December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Canara Swift in Bengaluru on a given day, against under 5% in January to September, the lowest months.
Only Bengaluru, in our data
Bengaluru is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Canara Swift sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Canara Swift is recorded against all the insects logged in Bengaluru (8 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.
