iNaturalist

We use iNaturalist to share observations from our wildbackyard.  It is also one of the best resources for specie identification.  We recommend using it to learn more about what we have in our wild backyard.  Simply visit iNaturalist (here) to search for information on specific specie.

What is iNaturalist?

     iNaturalist is an online social network of people sharing biodiversity information to help each other learn about nature.

     It's also a crowdsourced species identification system and an organism occurrence recording tool. You can use it to record your own observations, get help with identifications, collaborate with others to collect this kind of information for a common purpose, or access the observational data collected by iNaturalist users.

     iNaturalist helps you identify the plants and animals around you while generating data for science and conservation. Get connected with a community of millions of scientists and naturalists who can help you learn more about nature! What’s more, by recording and sharing your observations, you’ll create research-quality data for scientists working to better understand and protect nature. So, if you like recording your findings from the outdoors, or if you just like learning about life, join us!
