With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Maple Gall Wasp sighting in Cologne on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 69th most-seen of the 235 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April to June
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Maple Gall Wasp in Cologne on a given day, against under 5% in July to March, the lowest months.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Maple Gall Wasp sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

Same family: Cynipidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Maple Gall Wasp is recorded against all the insects logged in Cologne (19 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.
