Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Peck's Skipper sighting in Yellowstone National Park on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 102nd most-seen of the 160 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 a Peck's Skipper in Yellowstone National Park on a given day, against under 5% in September to June, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Peck's Skipper sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 4
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Peck's Skipper sightings, Yellowstone National Park ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Shenandoah National Park (United States, about 10%), Acadia National Park (United States, about 10%) and Great Smoky Mountains National Park (United States, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Peck's Skipper is recorded against all the insects logged in Yellowstone National Park (10 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.
