Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Little Blue Marsh Hawk sighting in Mumbai on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 283rd most-seen of the 362 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April and June–July

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Little Blue Marsh Hawk is recorded against all the insects logged in Mumbai (7 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.
