Hey folks! I'm starting to get keen for the Blitz next week.
I'm hoping we can get even more people involved this year, so please let any interested friends, family or colleagues know that it's on!!
Would anyone be interested if I organised a group walk somewhere for a couple of hours? It would be BioBlitz style, so we probably wouldn't get very far and would document as much as possible. If there's some people interested I would probably organise it for the Sunday someti...
Observation of the Month for June 2024
This months observation was by Sue Zucker-Scharff . She observed this on August 30, 2024 in Mamaroneck, NY. Her inaturalist name is sazs and the observation can be seen at:

Please look at this post delineating the basic requirements of having an observation considered to become the Observation of the Month (Criteria).
Beyond the basic criteria, there are a few things which we take into consideration and which makes the observation more "usable" that are not listed. I came to this realization through a single ins...
Modelització d’espècies invasores a la Costa Brava per a una gestió ràpida
Les dades del voluntariat són una peça clau en la lluita contra les espècies vegetals al·lòctones invasores a la Costa Brava. A través d’un treball col·laboratiu entre ciència i ciutadania, es poden obtenir informacions valuoses per predir i gestionar l’expansió d’aquestes espècies, amb l’objectiu de protegir els ecosistemes naturals de la Costa Brava.

We are the San Ignacio del Huinay Foundation, founded in 1998 by the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso (PUCV) and Enel Generación Chile. Since then, we have been dedicated to the study and conservation of the pristine and unique aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems of the Chilean Patagonian fjords. Located in the amazing Comau Fjord, we have amassed over 20-years of observat...
Hoje foi dia de apresentar dois trabalhos que estamos desenvolvendo no I Encontro Brasileiro de Ciência Cidadã, organizado pela Rede Brasileira de Ciência Cidadã e que ainda está acontecendo na UFABC, em São Bernardo do Campo.
Um dos trabalhos buscou entender como os observadores de aves que atuam no litoral paulista registram trinta-réis e gaivotas e como contribuem para as plataformas de Ciência Cidadã (conheça o trabalho:

iNaturalistUK user, Peachysteve, provides advice on recording these under recorded fungi.
The summer may be over but there is still plenty to record. Fungi like warm, moist, and stable conditions and that’s why Autumn is the peak time for them. As the summer heat fades and the rain comes, the soil reaches a Goldilocks state, not too hot, not too cold...

On September 11, 2024, this project was edited to update the actual 2020 Glass Fire Burn area within the park. Previously, the map for this project had incorrectly shown the entire park boundaries. While the updated map of the 2020 Glass Fire burn area is not entirely accurate, it is close enough for documentation purposes and to allow for multiple year observations as time progresses from the original fire footprint.
The curator welcomes anyone who would like to assist with a c...
This means increased koala activity, they may be seen crossing roads, navigating backyards, and possibly getting caught in other dangerous situations. Koalas can be on the move at any time of day, though they are more active between dusk and dawn.
🐨 339 koala sightings were reported across the City of Logan from the community in 2023.
👀 If you see a koala out and about, be sure to report your sighting via iNaturalist so that we can help to protect them as they wander through...
I went out to my local park multiple times before one day hearing the faint rolling call of a screech owl. It was mid morning and no matter where I looked I could not locate him/her. I went back that night and again heard the familiar call over and over until last of the day light had dwindled, then with the poorest of light I spotted a small brown ball flying through the air - It was in fact the screech owl that had been teasing me with calls. I had my nikon z9 with the 180mm-600mm h...

Thanks for joining our September BioBlitz at Shady Oaks Park! Our event was scheduled for the first day of two week-long events - the California Biodiversity Day and Gall Week. You can still contribute your observations to both events, as well as our BioBlitz event. When you upload observations from our 9/7 event they will be added automatically to our BioBlitz project as long as they were taken within the park boundaries. If you'd like to participate in the California Biodiversity Day e...

This week marks the one-year anniversary of the first Obscure Amazonian Lizard Observation of the Week, so I thought I would review the past year of data. Because these selections are meant to be a celebration of the lizard diversity present in the Amazon, my goal was to determine if selections were relatively even taxonomically, or focused on one or othe...
I found what I believe to be a Sheathed Woodtruft mushroom growing very close to the Egan library in Juneau this morning while walking to Class. One of the reasons I chose this for my second iNaturalist post is because although I walk through that area almost every day I hadn't noticed it until today. Sheathed Woodtufts are commonly found growing out of stumps, logs, and decaying wood which in the case of the colony I found holds. They are native to much of the world, including austrial,...
I removed Austroderia and made this project just the exotic TSGs.
The Orange Trail will have the 5 signs and instructions for this month's observations.
The Sunset Bluff and Overlook Trails will have the 5 signs and instructions for this month's observations.
In August of 2020 I had a surprise observation of a green Chrysididae wasp (Omalus sp), which during the time when I was taking photos appeared to start to sting aphids. A couple of years later, I read that the stinging was in fact the wasp ovipositing inside the aphids. It was part of a Trojan horse strategy, which involved Crabronid wasps which gathered aphids taking the aphid with the Chrysidid egg back to its nest. The Chrysidid larva would then hatch in the Crabronid’s nest and eat ...

まだまだ残暑が厳しいですがセミも大分おとなしくなり、秋っぽくなってきました。
さて、秋の訪れを感じる自然の一つに、「モズの高鳴き」があります。
普通、鳥は繁殖期の春から夏にかけて、オスがメスを呼ぶために、またはなわばりを宣言するためにさえずります。
モズは、逆に子育てが終わって秋になると、オスもメスも別々のなわばりを構え、そのなわばりを宣言するために、そのためオスもメスも両方、秋にさえずります。
それが、特別に高鳴きと呼ばれています。
アンテナの上など高いところに止まって、けたたましく「ギュンギュンキーキーキー」などと独特の声で鳴いているのでわかりやすいと思います。
多摩川のあたりでは数日前から良く聞かれるようになりました。皆さんのご近所でも鳴いていないでしょうか。
Come out to the park today from 5-8 for the Moon Market and Music event. We will have a tent where you can stop by and find out about the BioBlitz as well as our Community Wildlife Certification project and Pollinator Pathway.
Diagnosis: primary costa formed by long spines, similar to those in Somaticus (Clinocranion) spinosus, but approximated to suture and situated at about middle of elytron; the epipleural margination double, with the upper edge formed by long spines, together with its submarginal depression entirely visible in dorsal aspect.
