With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-Headed Carpenter sighting in Kochi on a given day, based on 33 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 135th most-seen of the 428 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
December
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-Headed Carpenter in Kochi on a given day, against under 5% in April and September, the lowest months. That is one of Kochi's driest months, with about 40 mm of rain against 490 mm in June.
3rd of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Yellow-Headed Carpenter sightings, Kochi ranks 3rd at about 10%. The best odds are in Thiruvananthapuram (India, about 20%) and Kozhikode (India, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Yellow-Headed Carpenter is recorded against all the insects logged in Kochi (33 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.
