With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Greater Blue Skimmer sighting in Seoul on a given day, based on 41 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 92nd most-seen of the 525 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.
June to September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Greater Blue Skimmer in Seoul on a given day, against under 5% in October to May, the lowest months. Those are among Seoul's wettest months, with about 220 mm of rain a month against 20 mm in January.
9th of 11
Of the 11 cities where we can rate Greater Blue Skimmer sightings, Seoul ranks 9th at about 10%. The best odds are in Naha (Japan, about 30%), Nagoya (Japan, about 20%) and Osaka (Japan, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Greater Blue Skimmer is recorded against all the insects logged in Seoul (41 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.
