With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Schwarz's Masked Bee sighting in Everglades National Park on a given day, based on 20 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 213th 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 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February–March, July and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Schwarz's Masked Bee in Everglades National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January, April–June and August–November, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Schwarz's Masked Bee 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 Schwarz's Masked Bee sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Schwarz's Masked Bee is recorded against all the insects logged in Everglades National Park (20 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.
