Make the Dunedin Town Belt your focus for Dunedin’s Great Southern BioBlitz!

Town Belt Kaitiaki invites all of our Dunedin Town Belt Biodiversity Project members to make our precious Town Belt the focus of your iNaturalist observations during the Bioblitz this September! And it would be great to cover other parts of Dunedin too - so we can put Dunedin well and truly on the iNaturalist Map as the Wildlife Capital of Aotearoa New Zealand!

A family day is planned for Sunday 22nd September, 2-4pm. See the project posts at:

Wyoming Colors - Post-fire Recovery and Leaf Change at Lake Owen

Spent Labor Day weekend camping with my fiancé and some friends at Lake Owen in the Medicine Bow mountains of southern Wyoming.

Back in 2020, Southern Wyoming and Northern Colorado were bombarded with wildfires (the Cameron Peak fire in Colorado; the Mullen Fire in Wyoming). At the time, I was driving along Snowy Range Road towards Encampment and the Sierra Madres while the Mullen Fire was raging. I took this photo back in 2020 of the fire, which was burning in the same area aro...

Hellgate Canyon Osprey Nest

The wind whipped through the small, cramped tent and rustled the camo fabric. I yawned. It was about eight in the morning and I didn’t usually get outside until ten or eleven. This day however, was different. With my feet firmly planted 15 feet above the Missoula College parking lot, I gazed through my camera’s viewfinder at an organized stack of limbs. I was with Dr. Erick Greene, who I interviewed on August 31st, 2021 about the Montana Osprey Project. He invited me to photograph an Osp...

Perhaps developing PCA was a mistake.

Just in case - SOSA – Senckenberg Ocean Species Alliance Ocean Species Discoveries

I received this email that maybe of interest. Logistics support for clearing backlogs of marine specimens that are in need of adequate taxonomic science.

Do you or any of your colleagues need this support? If so, please forward the information.

Placeholder backup project - what is it, and why??

I have battled with ‘temporary’ placeholders since November 2022 at least.

Still battling with them this August. Instead of the unkind - they have to learn NOT to use that enticing placeholder

The transition from summer to fall is when fungi start to emerge, especially after rain. From tiny mushrooms sprouting in your garden to larger ones in the forest, fungi are diverse and fascinating. Explore damp, shaded areas and see how many different kinds you can find. Look for various shapes, colours and textures.

All we have to do is OBSERVE!

Have you ever heard of symbiotic relationships between spiders and flies? 🕷️🪰 I recently stumbled upon one of these fascinating interactions. It all started with a cup of tea! 🤠☕

Three years ago, I was casually sipping tea in my backyard when something caught my eye, a Colopsus male spider on an anthurium leaf. As always, I grabbed my camera, ready to capture this one 📸 But this time, things got even more interesting.

I noticed a tiny fly sticking close to the spider, al...

It's Agalinis time!

Agalinis, the false foxgloves, bloom primarily in the fall. Some species are common and widespread, others are very rare, possibly extirpated in Texas, or very localized.

Here’s a Barred Owl (Strix varia) in a tree at Sigoowu Ye (Fun Place Park) near my residence. The Tlingit word for owl is “dzísk'w.”

Nothing sends chills down my spine quite like the hoot of an owl breaking the stillness of the night. Whether I'm falling asleep under the stars while camping or taking a late-night walk, the sight or so...

Observation Hum120 #2

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/241598433

For this observation, I took a picture of some bull kelp I saw on a walk. Bull kelp is a marine algae; like other algaes it is a photosynthesizer. Bull kelp anchors itself to the rocks with a rootlike holdfast and can grow up to ~115-130 feet long. The long stem-like part is the stipe. To keep buoyancy in the churning and rough waters the bul...

Today I have decided to observe the dwarf dogwood. It caught my eye while I was on a little walk in my neighborhood. When I was growing up, I would see these all the time and I thought that they had such pretty flowers. I liked the shape of the flowers and how they sat with the leaves. The pictures I took show the dogwood in fall, when they are little red berries. I was told not to eat the berries by my mom, and do not know much else about them.
After doing some research, I found ou...

While out walking behind my old highschool I came across a plant called Yarrow. I have seen these plants before scattered throughout the wetlands here in Juneau and have heard they can be good for treating wounds. When I saw it on my walk I knew I could take this opportunity to dive into what the plant itself does or is. Its scientific name is Achillea Millefolium which comes from “Achilles, who used plant extracts to treat soldiers’ wounds in the battle of Troy. The name milfoil comes f...

Devil's Club 9/10/24

Devil's club (Oplpanax horridus) is a large plant found in many places around Alaska, it loves to grow in big dense clusters in the forest. These plants are both a blessing and a curse to those who live around them, they are a very painful plant to encounter but also have healing properties and provide food for certain animals.
These plants can reach heights of three to five feet tall, but can exceed this in some cases. As I've seen with my own two eyes, the leaves are also quite la...

Columbia Spotted Frog

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/241595417
I found this frog near the Dredge lakes trail while on a walk. It was dead and looked like it was pretty dried up, so it had probably been dead for a while. I chose to post about it because this is a somewhat rare species to see in Juneau, and I have never seen one before. I was excited to have found this frog, because I have heard of them before...

This time I went out the road here in Juneau for a drive and I found some berries, I wasn't sure what they were at first, but it looks like they might be Red Huckleberries (if I am wrong please let me know!). When I’ve visited my family in Montana I've tried the huckleberries down there where they looked more like blueberries, I didn't know they could be red! They are a part of the genus Vaccinium, more specifically called Vaccinium parvifolium, and can be found along the Pacific coast, ...

Saturday morning, sixth day of the Count

Journal

We are at the start of the sixth day of the Echidna Count. The last three days have been fine with above average temperatures and cool nights, except on Thursday when there were a few showers.

There have been 13 echidnas seen so far, three times in a train of more than one echidna together.

Echidna trains are part of the courtship behaviour. It consists of males following a female, one of whom will be chosen by the female to breed with. One female (often...
