With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Orange-Tipped Wood-Digger sighting in Rocky Mountain National Park on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 125th most-seen of the 191 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Orange-Tipped Wood-Digger in Rocky Mountain National Park on a given day, against under 5% in September to June, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Orange-Tipped Wood-Digger sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Rocky Mountain National Park, in our data
Rocky Mountain National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Orange-Tipped Wood-Digger sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Apidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Orange-Tipped Wood-Digger is recorded against all the insects logged in Rocky Mountain 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.
