Mainly, my nature related dreams seem to revolve around my camera breaking down right when I’m about to photograph something extremely cool (and usually nonexistent). In one of my recent dreams, I was trying to photograph some brightly colored lichens and mosses while on a hike, but the lens of my …

Those are hilarious, lol Did you find out how using honey worked out for those microbiologists?

The honey got all over lab equipment and ruined a bunch of glass slides and a microscope. I think some forensic scientists came from somewhere and said that the honey would hold hairs in place to view under a microscope. Overall, it was a really odd dream, and kind of frusterating lol

A few months back I had a very frustrating iNat dream. I was at home and my wife told there was an unusual bird perched on the back fence. I went to look and saw it was a small species of Pterodactyl. I hastily pulled out my iPhone to take a picture, but got a message that the phone needed an urgent…

I often have dreams about IDing observations on iNat, and I often spend a lot of time looking through sources and finding amazing info, being able to ID some rare species.

I had a couple very strange dreams last night. As odd as they were, the animals in them all seemed very scientifically correct, and I was able to identify a lot of them to at least family or genus. In the first dream, my family and I went over to my neighbor’s house which I found out was a giant be…

Yeah, me too! For like a year leading up to my trip to Hawai’i I kept dreaming that I hadn’t been able to find any of the honeycreepers.

Like two nights ago I had a very strange dream related to nature (something that strangely enough, rarely happens, but when it does, it gets really interesting). I had a dream in which I was ‘‘diving’’ in a very strange coral reef. When I dream I’m underwater it is usually in a way in which water i…
