With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Antillean Saddlebags sighting in Everglades National Park on a given day, based on 29 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 134th most-seen of the 496 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.
November
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report an Antillean Saddlebags in Everglades National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April to September, the lowest months. That is one of Everglades National Park's driest months, with about 60 mm of rain against 240 mm in June.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Antillean Saddlebags sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Everglades National Park, in our data
Everglades National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Antillean Saddlebags sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Antillean Saddlebags is recorded against all the insects logged in Everglades National Park (29 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), 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.
