With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Caribbean Ruby-Eye sighting in Iguazú National Park on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 204th most-seen of the 306 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.
June
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Caribbean Ruby-Eye in Iguazú National Park on a given day, against under 5% in March–May, July and October–November, the lowest months.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Caribbean Ruby-Eye sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Caribbean Ruby-Eye sightings, Iguazú National Park ranks 2nd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Lago de Yojoa (Honduras, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Caribbean Ruby-Eye is recorded against all the insects logged in Iguazú National Park (9 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.
