Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Weidemeyer's Admiral sighting in Zion National Park on a given day, based on 41 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 15th most-seen of the 114 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Weidemeyer's Admiral in Zion National Park on a given day, against under 5% in November to March, the lowest months. That is one of Zion National Park's driest months, with almost no rain against 75 mm in March.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Weidemeyer's Admiral sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 5
Of the 5 parks where we can rate Weidemeyer's Admiral sightings, Zion National Park ranks 3rd at about 20%. The best odds are in Grand Teton National Park (United States, about 30%) and Rocky Mountain National Park (United States, about 30%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Weidemeyer's Admiral is recorded against all the insects logged in Zion National Park (41 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.
