2,400 observations this year, easily beating my previous record of 1,600 in 2022, and its only October!!!
I finally started my first project!! I felt too shy and nervous at first, but after re-going through some of my older photos, I decided I would give it a go!

Fun! I’ll have to see if I can find any “ruckus” among my birds…
Well, you can always count on finches to cause a ruckus at a feeder:

I joined so I can easily add more later.
Thank you! What a funny observation! In the second frame, it looks like it is diving through the air ![]()
Made a leaderboard–finally!! I’m the top observer of the Hairy Woodpecker (Allen’s) subspecies! (And one of the top identifiers, I guess since I ID’ed my own observations.) Sure, there’s only 17 observations in total, but still! And I didn’t even realize this until now!
My profile page now displays 4567 species after my second 8 day observation streak of the year. ![]()
a bit late to update but im at 2510 observations, 1010 species and 7000 IDs
expanding my expertise into lepidopterans too :)
Was pretty excited to get my first Great Southern Bioblitz observations ever while I was in Colombia the other week!
8 posts were split to a new topic: What areas are included in the Great Southern Bioblitz?
Over the last couple of weeks I’ve finally hit the double 200k - IDs and observations annotated. Happy days! Now I just need to get to the 20k observations… probably not for a while now winter’s closing in.
Wow! Thanks for all your hard work. ![]()
Amazing ![]()
I still have many observations to make, I felt happy and excited like: “a child at Christmas for the presents”, when I reached the first 100. xD
I finally got 700 species observed in my backyard!

And this one was the lucky lifer!
Leopard Slug, so cool!

And, I’ve hit 3,400 observations on iNat!
You should submit it for the photo of the week challenge!
I recently passed a personal milestone I’ve been chasing…helping over 100,000 observers by identifying their observations.
Bravo !
wow, thanks for all those IDs!
