With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Collared Carpenter Bee sighting in Guangzhou on a given day, based on 32 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 95th most-seen of the 482 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–August and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Collared Carpenter Bee in Guangzhou on a given day, against under 5% in September and November–March, the lowest months. Those are among Guangzhou's wettest months, with about 210 mm of rain a month against 30 mm in December.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Collared Carpenter Bee sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Collared Carpenter Bee sightings, Guangzhou ranks 3rd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, about 10%) and Hong Kong (China, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Collared Carpenter Bee is recorded against all the insects logged in Guangzhou (32 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.
