Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Metallic Fir Borer sighting in Calgary on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 193rd most-seen of the 256 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Metallic Fir Borer in Calgary on a given day, against under 5% in July to May, the lowest months. That is one of Calgary's wettest months, with about 120 mm of rain against 15 mm in January.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Metallic Fir Borer sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Calgary, in our data
Calgary is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Metallic Fir Borer sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Metallic Fir Borer is recorded against all the insects logged in Calgary (7 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.
