10 дней на Камчатке позволили вернуться к наблюдениям и приступить к реализации проекта "Красная книга Камчатского края". Теперь его надо доделать и дать ему свободу.)
Хочется сделать Натуралист публичным. Экспериментирую с каналами в Телеге. Канал по Камчатке запущен. Наблюдаем дальше.
Hope everyone has been having fun this weekend! We were off to a slow start with the not so nice weather Friday-Saturday, but today and tomorrow are much more welcoming, so we're looking forward to further observations getting added for the coming week. We'll have a bunch of visual and audio uploads from Latimer Park, Keery Park and several local parks in west Cloverdale to add for the City of Surrey's account in the next few days so stay tuned.

I have gotten very fond of the dark-furred eastern gray squirrels, as one might guess from my profile picture. I get to see them on a regular basis where I currently live, but I will be relocating very soon to the Southern Tier area of NY state and of all the things I am worried about missing, the black squirrels are very high on the list.
I have tried noodling around on the internet to try to see if there are any near where I will be living and exploring. I found an iNat project ca...

For many months now I have had the idea to write a guide for the tribe Amphidorini, where I could cover every species known and provide information to identify them. Last month I finally decided that I would commit to writing it and I have gotten a decent amount of progress since then, though I am still on Blapylis. Despite the title, I will also include information for those species from Mainland Mexico and Guatemala, they just have so little information that I do not realty think they ...
For my third hike I went to Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park in Oakland. I ended up trekking along the Graham and West Ridge Trail. It was a sunny day with light winds and zero clouds in the sky. It was fairly cool although I felt a bit too warm underneath my jacket. I didn't see much wildlife other than the occasional squirrel and some corvids squawking hear and there. There where quite a lot of people hiking along the trails and many of them had brought dogs. Some of which either didn't...

Look at us go! As of this afternoon the community has documented 142 species with 219 observations uploaded by 21 observers! Woohoo! Despite the strong winds and cool temperatures, we have done a fantastic job of capturing the biodiversity of our beautiful canyon and mountains. Many thanks to all who have participated and it is not too late to join in the project!

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the 2024 Friends of Cave Creek Canyon BioBlitz thus far! I am heading to the canyon shortly to document more species but first wanted to share this quick update:
The BioBlitz got off to a wild and windy start on Thursday, April 25th. Seventeen 7th grade students from Center for Academic Excellence (Douglas) braved the high winds and arrived at the Visitor Information Center (VIC) at 10:00 a.m. They spent the next five hours exploring...

Dear friends,
Another day of our wonderful challenge. We have a sunny day and I hope you have a nice time outside (with a few new observations of course).
There is still one day tomorrow to make observations and a few days to upload/identify them. Therefore, If you still have the strength and time to do some photos, it would be perfect. Compared to other cities, Krakow is in the upper half of the leaderboard with the neighbors Bratislava and České Budějovice.

Due to construction at Berry Springs Park and Preserve, there was a small group outing to Lake Creek Dam this month.
Five amphibian species were observed in the creek and nearby dry block limestone wall: Rio Grande Leopard Frog (CI = 1), Gulf Coast Toad (CI = 0), Rio Grande Chirping Frog (CI = 1), Blanchard's Cricket Frog (CI = 3), and Green Tree Frog (CI = 3). Two scorpions, several Mediterranean Geckos, and a Black-necked Garter Snake were also seen in cracks in the wall. A Rio Gra...
We went on a nice and a sunny day to the Natural Bridges on April 27 to explore the biodiversity of flora and fauna in marine ecosystems. It was very exciting. Then and there, the place felt very cold and was very breezy with smell from Eucalyptus trees around.
Tide pools in Natural bridges was home to may anemones, crabs, insects and plants. It gives a glimpse of life beneath the sea.We took pictures of those and on our way back from the tide pool, we saw many western gulls &...
Weather-wise, today was interesting. The sun was up (-ish) at dawn, but clouds were around as well. The forecast was for rain most of the day, with some partial clouds in the morning. If we wanted to get out and not get wet, morning was our best option.
I headed to North Norwich to visit a new-to-me wetland. It did not disappoint! As soon as I got out of my car, a sandhill crane flew overhead. As soon as I turned on Merlin to see if any warblers were around, a sora called o...
Thank you so much to everyone for contributing to our sub-project of the SF Bay Area City Nature Challenge - Lake Merritt BioBlitz City Nature Challenge 2024!
Still two days (today and tomorrow) to make more observations. Please upload your photos to iNaturalist so they can be counted.
Have a great rest-of-weekend,
Katie
We're now coming to the end of day 3 of the City Nature Challenge. Unfortunately it was a bit of a wash our here in York (and for a lot of the UK by the looks of things) but we've still managed to get some more observations taking our total number of species up to 100, which is a fantastic milestone to have reached. Don't forget the challenge continues until midnight on the 29th so there's still plenty of time to get out and start recording!
Time: 8 AM to 11:20 AM, 4/27/24

On Saturday, I went on the bird banding trip with the UVM birding club. We got to see 4 birds being banded - 2 Black-capped Chickadees, a Hermit Thrush, and a Pine Warbler. We learned about how they band the birds, what measurements they take, and how they try to determine the age and sex of the bird. We waited ...

Heute habe ich den Grossteil der Pfanzen fotografiert, für deren Wachstum und Erhalt ich mich seit Jahren verpflichtet fühle. Ich wollte dem Artensterben etwas entgegensetzen. In der Hoffnung, dass es vielleicht für einige Andere beispielhaft sein könnte... Die momentan aufstrebenden Jungpflanzen und teilweise Arten sind noch nicht dokumentiert.
Good afternoon City Nature Challenge community!
Congratulations on reaching the incredible milestone of 500+ species observed!! That is an incredible accomplishment, and it has really been a joy to watch your observations come in. I have learned about some new species and bird behaviors just from reviewing your pictures and notes!
Tips for more identifiable observations
We are hoping to pinpoint the specific species for as many of o...
Где можно искать?
Начать можно с того, чтобы вспомнить не растут ли какие-то растения у вас дома/на даче/огороде (не забывать указывать что они содержатся в неволе!). В городе есть много зелёных зон - парки, разные скверы, иногда что-то интересное можно найти даже на клумбе. Кроме того, можно смотреть в самом inaturalist, где рядом с вами другие люди делали наблюдения в похожее время года, и пытаться выбирать локацию для прицельного поиска интересующих вас организмов.

Thanks to everyone who came to our wildlife recording walk around the Welsh Harp Environmental Education Centre! Despite the rainy outlook, it was great to see so many enthusiastic faces :-). Special thanks to Simon Braidman for his invaluable naturalist-y presence, & to Gillan Barnard and Suzanne Morpurgo for pulling everyone together.
