NATURE WITHOUT LIMITS - iNaturalist challenge

[AdamWargon]

1. @DianaStuder, thanks for sharing that post by Lucy Corrander, that got you into iNat (kind of, via iSpot).
2. Re: The transition from iSpot to iNat, I looked into it, as I wanted to better understand how national recording schemes work. It turns out to be a complicated and contentious story. @tonyrebelo wrote a detailed post about it, and you can also read a white paper about it.
3. Regarding the “stuck foot” idea, it reminded me of this post:

@AdamWargon

Every group walk is too fast for me now. Birding walks, botany walks . . . I want to say,

“Hey, we’re missing so many observations! We need to sit on the ground for 10 minutes, see which bugs we can find under leaves, see which tiny plants are growing at our feet . . . We can’t go racing along at this walking pace!
