With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Peck's Skipper sighting in Washington on a given day, based on 838 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 31st most-seen of the 1807 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.
September
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Peck's Skipper in Washington on a given day, against under 5% in June and October–April, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Peck's Skipper sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
5th of 11
Of the 11 cities where we can rate Peck's Skipper sightings, Washington ranks 5th at about 10%. The best odds are in Detroit (United States, about 30%), Minneapolis [Saint Paul] (United States, about 20%) and Toronto (Canada, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Peck's Skipper is recorded against all the insects logged in Washington (838 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.
