Success!

We reached our goal of 500 species this weekend, and then surpassed it! Thank you for logging species that were new to our project, and possibly new to you.

I know this weekend I definitely added a few more species to my repertoire. From the tuberous grasspink (Calopogon tuberosus) to the seaside brookweed (Samolus parviflorus), there is no way I would have learned about these small backyard plants without the help of the iNaturalist community. I especially gained insight from the comment section of your observations. Seeing the questions, answers, and comments shared among the users in this project inspires me to ask, share, and observe more. I encourage you all to comment on an observation and ask a question to learn more about it, or even take advantage of the “fave” feature and fave an observation that interests you!

This weekend also brought some changes to the leaderboard. Congratulations to user colemama for logging 83 species so far! Observing such a great diversity deserves a prize, and we’re sending one your way. This user is currently leading our project in Most Species and Most Observations. Way to go!

Thanks for the kudos and the prize! This has been a fun learning project on my daily walks around town - can't wait until I can get on a trail. I challenge the rest of you to climb past me this week - the top is too lonely for me... Marie Coleman :)
