Phase III Identifications.
Thanks all for a sterling job.
It is now time to start focusing on getting observations to Research Grade. However, with a backlog of 14,000 Unknowns, we also need people to tackle this group urgently
Of our 124,371 observations of 9,548 species (does not look like we will make 10,000 this year)
ВЕСНА: ДЕНЬ ЗА ДНЁМ
Всего за третью декаду апреля в проект «Весна: день за днём» по Белгородской области добавилось 16 видов птиц, а за всё время наблюдения встречены 89 видов (из них на учтены через портал INat 56 видов).
21 апреля – Восточный соловей, А. Попов, Шебекинский р-н
22 апреля – Обыкновенный перепел, А. Попов, Шебекинский р-н
23 апреля – Пеночка-трёщотка, А. Попов, Шебекинский р-н

Limkins, mushrooms, ....swamp tupelo! The bar has been set; bring your naturalist game!
We've pretty much plateaued at the number of observations (5,485) and species (1,428), both of which are amazing! I've spent the day doing identifications. We're at 43.3% research grade, up from 37.2% yesterday. I'd like to hit at least 50% by Sunday night. There are still of "Unknowns" to be sorted out, so any help you can give is still welcome.

On May 3rd, 2024, I had reached 500 observations, the observation that brought me to this number was a house sparrow. Buying a camera had certainly given me many more opportunities to make observations, including several species I had not been able to photograph before.

My partner and I went to Puerto Rico for 9 days. I am not big on just laying out in the sun so I took some photos of the local biodiversity. It was the greatest orgy of nature exploration I've ever had. It's amazing to be in a place where you can walk in the sea with a phone or camera because the waves are generally so small, and where you can hike up thousands of vertical feet across a whole series of ecological communities, and where the mushrooms, orchids, warblers and other creatures...

Please fix your locality resolution (or locality accuracy or locality error). Too large an accuracy, or missing accuracy, means that the data are not incorporated into checklists for the smaller nature reserves and places, and cannot be used for conservation planning and red listing purposes.
Ideally we like it to be 2-5m accuracy, but often one is uncertain, or does not know quite where one was, in which case it might be 100s of metres. but please if you genuinely dont know exac...
I began this iNaturalist account with the intention of documenting local tree species. I named it for the tree service that I work for, and I intended it partly as a resource to share with interested clients who wanted to know more about the trees that grow in our area. However, this account very quickly expanded beyond that narrow focus as I began using it to document all kinds of plant life. Soon I was averaging observations of multiple new species each day, including several "county r...
Good morning fellow fish observers
In celebration of World Ocean Day 2024 we are facilitating a Reef Blitz between 1 and 8 June.
https://worldoceanday.org/event/reef-blitz-2024/
We have organised similar events in 2022 and 2023 and you can see the great results on iNaturalist with over 2000 observations of 621 species-

Seal Cove, tour for 11/12th graders from KIPP Academy East Palo Alto. Well behaved
Several ochre, several bats. Overall, good. Good group.
Good evening CNCSOFLO-ers!
We just broke 3,000 species for the first time ever! Many folks are still uploading pics taken from the observation period and at this point we are within touching distance of passing Cape Town. They have always been the City Nature Challenge juggernauts and it's wild to think we may end up passing them. Whatever the case, this has been the best CNCSOFLO yet in terms of species observed. Our number of participants dropped quite a bit compared to last ye...
Sat in my backyard today and saw tons of birds! I saw a pair of blue jays but sadly wasn't able to snap a picture quick enough.

Suggestions for photographing larva of Lepidoptera
Most Plusiines cannot be reliably IDed from a larval photo.

If you read my posts last summer about the "top galls" to look for in 2023, you might recall some discussion of blister-like galls growing on the leaves of Silphium plants. These unassuming leaf swellings are quite unusual amongst Silphium gall wasps, especially given that most species induce only inconspicuous galls hidden within the host plant's tissues, and that the cauline leaves of most Silphium species are quick to shrivel up and break away during the growing s...

В Ватутинском лесу первое кукование кукушки зафиксировано 27 апреля. Первая трель соловья - 1 мая.
(For lack of a given term)
I've been interested in these galls on Ericameria laricifolia for some time, and recently found great numbers at the Sears Kay ruin on the Tonto National Forest. I returned later and collected a couple of dozen to observe.
Galls are apical, teardrop-shaped and are de...
-------------- 3rd May 2024 --------------
The project comprises initially 174 taxa :
Currently, 122 of 136 different species have RG observations.
We did it! Mrs. Rhodes, Dr. Koz and myself got our students paired up and made a ton of observations in and around our playground! Kids observed so many different kinds of plants, trees, bushes, flowers, and we even found a wolf spider!
Kids also created some nature journals about their iNaturalist observations. They did them on iPads and paper. I know our 6th graders loved hanging out and helping our younger friends from 2nd and 1st grade.
The percentage of Observations at Research Grade for the Garden Route District is currently 41.5%.
While quantity is good, let us also look at quality and get a healthy 66% of the Observations at Research Grade.
