Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Blue-Winged Grasshopper sighting in Moscow on a given day, based on 23 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 506th most-seen of the 1111 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Blue-Winged Grasshopper in Moscow on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Blue-Winged Grasshopper sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
22nd of 22
Of the 22 cities where we can rate Blue-Winged Grasshopper sightings, Moscow ranks 22nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Kharkiv (Ukraine, about 10%), Warsaw (Poland, about 10%) and Munich (Germany, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Blue-Winged Grasshopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Moscow (23 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.
