Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a The Phoenix sighting in Copenhagen on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 304th most-seen of the 476 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.
July and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a The Phoenix in Copenhagen on a given day, against under 5% in September to June, the lowest months.
Between 10 pm and 1 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most The Phoenix sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
4th of 6
Of the 6 cities where we can rate The Phoenix sightings, Copenhagen ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Helsinki (Finland, about 10%), Birmingham (United Kingdom, under 5%) and London (United Kingdom, under 5%).
Same family: Geometridae
The closest relatives of the The Phoenix that you can see in Copenhagen (family Geometridae, Geometer Moths) are Small Dusty Wave (about 10%), Double-Striped Pug (about 10%) and Riband Wave (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the The Phoenix is recorded against all the insects logged in Copenhagen (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.
