Nice!

For anyone who’s interested, me, greenari, d_kluza, and many others have ID’ed almost every domestic Muscovy as such. There’s a clear separation in the data between domestic and wild Muscovies if you use the right filters. This wasn’t accurate before.
I’d say the same for Swan Geese, they’ve been separated from their domestic counterparts.
I’m moving on to Mallards and Greylags now. Since they have more observations than the previous two species, it’ll be a bit tougher the separate them from their domestic relatives. I’m also finding hybrids that have been misidentified, such as the Mule Duck and Greylag x Swan Goose.
I’ve got a lot to do!

The project I curate for my local nature preserve just hit 1,000 species! That number was greatly influenced by the couple of mothing nights we had. https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/watson-preserve

2,000 verifiable observations at my house, that’s fun. Also, I’ve reviewed 40,000 Penstemon observations and misidentifications (where has the time gone?).

Congratulations! That’s a lot of observations and also identification of a difficult group.

I’d say about half are easy. No one should be confusing Penstemon whippleanus or richardsonii 
Anyways, 30,000 more to check!

This little guy was my 1,000th observation! I wasn’t expecting to reach that number in just over a year but here I am! Maybe by this time next year I can reach 2,000.

Thats cool! But other then for the millions in cash, in species the first 1000 are the easiest and then it will be getting more difficult… But thats a good chance to broaden you focus as well

I just passed 700 observations which has given me 500 species (subject to verification). I need to do 48 more IDs for others to hit 1000 so I’ll try and do that in the next couple of days too.
I know I’ve got a backlog of a couple of hundred species too but finding photos that help verify the ID is trickier than I thought. That will teach me not to keep better records

It’s been 5 years since moving into the current flat, and just documented the 100th (wild) animal species (a moth fly) on my ‘found-indoors list’

Just got 60k overall, when I finish uploading everything I have it will be more like 61 verifiable.

This week I hit the 1000 observations and 20.000 IDs this year. Now I just want to hit my minimum of 500 species a for this year, which might also bring me to the 2500 species in total. I guess that will be doable by just IDing what I got uploaded so far, but there are also still some observations from recently coming.

That last thousand of Unknowns for Africa, which has been haunting me since the bioblitz. I have cleared half. Only 500 now. I can review about 100 a day … getting there, if the new stuff doesn’t flood in over me!

Awesome, congratulations on that!
I’m slowly closing in on 50k - I should get to 48k as soon as I upload my most recent batch of pics. And 4,314 taxa.
There’s still over 2k RG species recorded in my county that I haven’t found yet, but the number keeps going down :)
