I went on a little spree yesterday to reach 60k IDs. A couple others I recently got are 1100 leaf taxa in my yard and 2222 leaf taxa overall. Looking forward to 2026

The most impressive thing about your stats is that while 322 people helped you, you helped 53,296 :double_exclamation_mark: people!

1502

A clean 14,000 IDs, 5,065 obs, 1,168 species, 400 annotations, and 22 followers!!!
My numbers are increasing!!!

1503

Thank you! Some of those are were definitely mine!

1504

That’s my favorite number tbh, it’s the one that gives me the warm fuzzies.

4 year observation streak completed yesterday:

started: 2022-01-03 today: 2026-01-03 1462 days

This morning I’ve added a couple to begin a 5th year I suppose. I was only planning to do it for 2022 originally, but then I couldn’t stop.

Congratulations not only on that remarkable achievement, but also on the fact that you were paying enough attention to catch it at exactly that count!

I’ve gotten into the habit of observing something everyday so I think I’ll just keep it up and see how many more days I can add to my streak.

1518

Just past 46,000 ID’s for others - recent months have been heavy on the shrub ID.
