What are your favorite projects?

I’ll put in a plug for Organisms Interacting with Rabbitbrush · iNaturalist. Please add any relevant observations you upload or identify!

I have that one in my project hoarde alreay, and you’re right; it’s great.

Life of a Stump is another good one that I haven’t seen mentioned yet.

Funny, I had a similar idea for a project recording life on trees. I like the idea for the project.

You could still make one for living trees.

Oh darn it! I added observations with living trees! Now I have to remove them.

From those that weren’t mentioned yet:
Animated observations
Molluscan Mycophagy
Jumpingspider (Salticidae) Mimicry
Killed by Domestic Cats

Your link for Jumping spiders goes to the Mollusc project

Fixed!

That is really cool. I had no idea this was even a thing.

Wasn’t there another project for first observations of an organism on iNat (not first everywhere)? I thought there was, but I can’t seem to find it.

I’ve never seen a project for that. I would love to see it though if it does exist!

I definitely remember it being discussed here, but not sure if it existed already or someone wanted to make it.

Same! I remember it, but all I could find in forum search was a feature request for it to be some sort of system-applied observation field.

Maybe some sort of Mandela Effect at work here for you & me, @fffffffff , because I’ve been searching for projects named “First” and can’t find it. :frowning_face:

The closest I can find is iNat Observation of the Day which sometimes has iNat firsts, but not exclusively.

Also, seeds and fruits is another cool project.

Then you can start one.)

So would it be first observation added or oldest observation?

I was looking for first added, not oldest.
