To everyone who celebrates, happy Thanksgiving! Thanks to everyone who has been a part of this awesome community, from the staff who work tirelessly to our identifiers who help improve data quality to our observers who submit valuable citizen science data to better map our beautiful planet’s biodiversity!
If you want to please share something nature-themed you are thankful for. I’ll start with I am thankful for all of the Inaturalist community!
Happy Thanksgiving to you, too!
I’m thankful for iNatualist and for spiders in general!
Happy Thanksgiving!
I’m grateful to be safe and warm during Mother Nature’s “Welcome to Winter 2025”…
Birdseed and safe leftovers to my wild friends, as soon as I can get the door open!
There we go…Happy Thanksgiving! I’m thankful for Velvet Ants, beautiful wasps that always make my day better.
Seen right outside my dining room windows yesterday (but they are wisely hiding today)
I’m thankful that wild turkeys were successfully reintroduced back to places around where I live, so I can watch them strut along the woods!
I’m thankful that iNaturalist has given me the chance to meet other people who share my interests, and let me know I’m not alone in the world. In my family, I’m the outlier, because no body else enjoys or appreciates my need to constantly observe nature (Especially on a hike!)
I’m also thankful for mosquitos! They really make my day.
And nothing can beat a wonderful day iNatting in nature, in search of ANY wildlife. If I’m out there, I’m content.
I’m thankful for this community, and that there are people here who understand my absurd love for Odonata.
I’m glad that you’re safe and warm. At the same time, I’m almost a little envious. The Front Range has been almost frighteningly warm and dry this fall and winter. Denver should have had at least one measureable snowfall by now, and I kind of miss it!
Be careful what you wish for…
Droughts are scary! Lack of snowpack is dreadful for the forest, it determines how well trees make it through dry summer. I’ve lived in Michigan 65 years and even though each years cold and snow are harder for me, I don’t know what a year without freezy&breezy / snowy&blowy season would be.
Yes, I’m grateful for this community also, you guys have been helping me in ways you don’t know!
