Welcome

Hi everyone.

In these very strange times that are pretty odd and changing all of the time, Rob Puschendorf (mostly Rob) and myself together with other academics needed some way to enthuse you all about Biology when we cannot necessarily be there in the field with you. iNaturalist seems like a pretty good way of doing this. Please engage as much as you can. We will be trying to help you identify as much as possible and the wonderful iNat community will help you with that. Rob also wants to turn this in to a competition between degree programmes. I am well up for that. Competitive listing of species is right up my street - and also a lot of fun! I will be using every dirty trick in the book to beat Conservation Biology and Zoology. Please help me doing that! (I'm doubting Rob and Mike are going to read this so don't tell them please!).

Most of all and more seriously, under the current circumstances, this is an excellent resource and really helps the whole scientific community. Please be sensible and embrace iNat. You will learn a huge amount.

Rich
