With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Spotted Pine Sawyer sighting in Grand Canyon National Park on a given day, based on 33 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 21st most-seen of the 143 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spotted Pine Sawyer is recorded against all the insects logged in Grand Canyon National Park (33 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.
