With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Boettger's Colombian Tree Frog sighting in Los Nevados National Natural Park on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 4th most-seen of the 6 amphibians 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.
January, May and September
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Boettger's Colombian Tree Frog in Los Nevados National Natural Park on a given day, against under 5% in February–April, June–August and December, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Boettger's Colombian Tree Frog sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Los Nevados National Natural Park, in our data
Los Nevados National Natural Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Boettger's Colombian Tree Frog sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Boettger's Colombian Tree Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Los Nevados National Natural Park (11 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.
