Answer:

rather

Step-by-step explanation:

On Monday mornings, the anxious birds watch rather closely for the increasingly rare visits by the rest of the flock.

the reason the other person that answered was wrong was because he or she did not know what words were underlined.

The adverb rather modifies the adverb closely which modifies the adverb increasingly.

'Increasingly' describes 'rare' which describes 'visits'.
