With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Flangetail sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 415 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 77th most-seen of the 1045 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Flangetail in Singapore on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Common Flangetail sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 6
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Common Flangetail sightings, Singapore ranks 4th at about 10%. The best odds are in Yogyakarta (Indonesia, about 30%), Johor Bahru (Malaysia, about 20%) and Jakarta (Indonesia, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Flangetail is recorded against all the insects logged in Singapore (415 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.
