Likely
About 40% of wildlife watchers report a Pale Grass Blue sighting in Cần Thơ on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. Over three days the chance rises to about 80%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January and October
In those months about 60% of wildlife watchers report a Pale Grass Blue in Cần Thơ on a given day, against about 10% in February–March and May, the lowest months. June, August–September and November have too few records to rate.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Pale Grass Blue sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 61
Of the 61 cities where we can rate Pale Grass Blue sightings, Cần Thơ ranks 4th at about 40%. The best odds are in Gwangju (South Korea, about 60%), Jamshedpur (India, about 50%) and Kanpur (India, about 40%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pale Grass Blue is recorded against all the insects logged in Cần Thơ (6 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.
