I'm a park naturalist with more than a decade of professional experience but still have tons to learn. If I ask questions about how you got to your ID, that's why!

I'm here to contribute to community science efforts - mainly the Maryland Biodiversity Project: https://www.marylandbiodiversity.com/

From 2014-2020, I contributed photos to the MBP via Flickr instead of iNaturalist, and you can see those observations here: https://www.marylandbiodiversity.com/media/viewThumbnails.php?user=1410

Feel free to contact me if you are interested in using any of my photos for educational purposes.
