With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Flangetail sighting in Changsha on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 36th most-seen of the 56 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July and August
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Common Flangetail in Changsha on a given day, against under 5% in September to May, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Common Flangetail sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 10

Same order: Odonata

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Flangetail is recorded against all the insects logged in Changsha (10 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.
