20 years ago (pre-iNat), I had a lot of cool experiences, around the world, that went un-documented or under-documented. Here are 3:
- Assembling aquatic invert collections and minnow collections during college
- Working on a deep-sea trawler off the south coast of Australia. Knee-deep in cool species that you might only see in museums or nature documentaries.
- A blizzard of giant moths and other critters coming to lights in Costa Rica
But like @silversea_starsong said, it all comes out in the wash. Because iNat exists, today is the best time in human history to be into nature. The best is yet to come!
