These Observations were taken for a University assingment assessing the accuracy and viability of community-sourced data regarding species distribution within Lugarno focusing on HV Evatt Park and Forest Rd

In spite of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, there was a small group outing to Berry Springs Park and Preserve again this month.
Three amphibian species were observed in the main ponds, sloughs, and ditch in the pecan orchard (Rio Grande Leopard Frog at CI = 2, Blanchard's Cricket Frog at CI = 3, and Gulf Coast Toad at CI = 1). Amy got a recording of the latter, and I heard it, but I didn't get a recording.
According to the USGS gauge station at Berry Creek at Airport Road near Geo...

Firstly, when thinking of wintering bird species in the area; the American Crow comes to mind immediately. This is a species in which I have seen a lot of over the winter for a few reasons. American Crows can keep warm at night by gathering in roosts to share body heat...
This past month, in a process that took DOZENS of hours -- far more than I had budgeted -- I prepared my FLORIDA LIFE LIST for all taxa that have been research-graded on iNaturalit. I have updated the spreadsheet whenever I photograph a new species. I have tried to be 100% accurate, but some non-species can be RGed -- things like Whirligig Beetles or "Mason and Potter wasps," so it's a bit difficult to determine precisely how many RG species I have. (Clearly, I need to add but tally sepa...

UC Berkeley entomologist Kipling Will discovered a specimen of Bembidion brownorum while sampling for insects near Freshwater Creek on former Gov. Jerry Brown’s ranch. The species had not been observed by scientists in more than 55 years.
Tiens, j’ai le goût de vous partager quatre observations un peu spéciales.

I didn't get the Kayak into the water until nearly 12pm (many trips carrying stuff from carpark)
Paddled to the eastern arm of Anchor Bay, I could see the bottom to about 8m. Found a spot I thought was safe to anchor, tried to get off the reef but my anchor was in the Ecklonia at 10m.
I descended the anchor line to 10m to find a stunning Ecklonia forest in great ...
Some of the year-round species I saw were White-breasted Nuthatches, Black-capped Chickadees, and Tufted Titmice. They may forego migration because they do not have the energy needed to migrate warmer areas. Because they don’t migrate, they need some adaptations to get through the winter. For example, Black-capped Chickadees go into facultative hypothermia to save energy. This is a physiological adaptation. A behavioral adaptation that may birds have is they can puff up their feathers to...
Hi everyone just a quick update and another reminder to join the project for the summer tanager competition https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/race-for-the-summer-tanager.

In February, the I Spy and Identify Invasives project made 4,917 observations of 942 species. 193 people observed and reported native and invasive species across Canada and our network grew by 14 new individuals (and counting) – welcome to our new members!
February’s reports included 450 observations of 132 different introduced and invasive species. The month’s totals included these sightings:
• 2 observations of Emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis) in Hamilton, O...
