With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pale Hairtail sighting in Johannesburg on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 126th most-seen of the 213 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January–March, May and September–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pale Hairtail in Johannesburg on a given day, against under 5% in April, June–August and December, the lowest months.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pale Hairtail is recorded against all the insects logged in Johannesburg (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.
