Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Lowland Owl sighting in Tijuca National Park on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 95th most-seen of the 132 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.
June–July and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Lowland Owl in Tijuca National Park on a given day, against under 5% in August–October and December–May, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Lowland Owl sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Lowland Owl sightings, Tijuca National Park ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Iguazú National Park (Argentina, about 10%) and Iguaçu National Park (Brazil, about 10%).
Same family: Nymphalidae
The closest relatives of the Lowland Owl that you can see in Tijuca National Park (family Nymphalidae, Brush-footed Butterflies) are White Peacock (about 20%), Julia Heliconian (about 10%) and Melinaea ludovica (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Lowland Owl is recorded against all the insects logged in Tijuca National Park (6 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.
