Note: Rough Draft Report for a lower level English course I'm taking. I realized a little ways into it, that the scope of the paper was too large for the page requirements, so I just ended up hitting interesting points.
Abstract
Fungi are a diverse and enduring phylogenetic kingdom. Researchers estimate that fungi separated from animals 900 million to 1 billion years ago. During this time they have diversified, and colonized many new ecological niches. It is estimated that t...
As part of an effort to improve my mental and physical health, I'm embarking on a quest. With purpose. My goal is to, starting back on 25 May 2023, have logged and/or identified 30 unique species by some nebulous future date. Just to see if I can, in a short time frame. Looking forward to the walks!
Добрый день, пожалуйста, внимательно прочитайте!
Ко всем большая просьба в своём профиле указать настоящее имя, учебную группы и загрузить фотографию. Чтобы знать, кому зачитывать собранные наблюдения.
Каждому необходимо набрать минимум 50 наблюдений разных видов, которые будут иметь статус "Research Grade / Исследовательский уровень". То есть для каждого наблюдения должна быть загружена качественная фотография, по которой можно определить объект живой природы, иметься то...

There has been a worldwide growing concern to save the bees, but most of that concern is directed towards saving honeybees. Honey bees are credited for pollinating our crops, but they are not the only bee that is pollinating. In May 2023, I did a daily species count to identify what species of bees are pollinating the blueberry bushes in my urban garden. Survey was taken on 8 blueberry bushes; 6 bluecrop and 2 northlands
This warm weather has really brought out the insects and flowers. We are starting to see fledgling birds and every log in the lake seems to have a turtle on it. We are at 2838 observations for the Otty Lake project so the challenge for the next month is to hit 3000. Get out there and document life along your waterfront. If you are using a cell phone camera you may want to look for a magnifier app. Just this morning a tiny jumping spider landed on my foot and I was able to get a good enou...
This BTO report, updated annually, is a one-stop shop for information about the population status of our common terrestrial birds. It is based on data gathered by many thousands of volunteers who contribute to BTO-led surveys. With one web page per species, users can quickly find all the key information about trends in population size and breeding performance, as measured by BTO ...

433 Bombus pensylvanicus were observed by 176 observers on iNaturalist; in Illinois prior to 2023. The following data is a list of flowers that the bees were observed on. The purpose of the data is to help people identify which flowers to plant in their yard (or preserve) for Bombus pensylvanicus, and to increase their awareness of what flowers the bees might be found on when searching for B.pensylvanicus in the wild.
Physalia physalis is also commonly called the Portuguese Man O’War because its sail-like float resembles a type of Portuguese sailing warship. Previously thought to be two different species in different areas of the world, it has been synonymized into a single species in the genus Physalia. It is not a “true” jellyfish, because it is a colonial hydrozoan called a siphonophore.
僧帽水母（Physalia physalis）因為在海中漂浮的移動方法與一種葡萄牙航海戰艦相似，又被俗稱為「葡萄牙戰艦」。僧帽水母從前被認為是在兩個不同地域出現的品種，現在作為單一品種被歸在僧帽水母屬下。牠並非「真...
Welcome to the 2023 Cherokee BioBlitz! This project is organized by Woodstock, Rose Creek, R.T. Jones, and Ball Ground Public Libraries, part of the Sequoyah Regional Library System.
We live in a beautiful community, full of diverse plants, animals, and habitats. This summer, we’d love your help in cataloging what can be found in our environment! From June 1st through July 31st, all wild nature findings will be collected here to create a record of Cherokee County’s biodiversity....
On the 12th of May, at around 12 noon, I reached Udupi. Paul and Adi were still on their way. Aditya had very little space on his memory card and needed batteries for his cameras. We bought these for him, and then embarked on a bus journey to Guddekeri accompanied by Poorna and Samrudh. The bus ride was quite bumpy, tossing us in our seats as we ascended the ghats, revealing breathtaking views along the way. I tried to strike up conversations with my companions, but Poorna remained incre...

-and; I'm very glad to be here. While I didn't grow up going on hikes or visiting petting zoos, I did read about animals, dinosaurs, the Earth and space; and, almost incessantly at that lol. I've always been interested in ecology in one way or another; and, one fun fact about me that probably no-one cares about would be my love for ferns.
While much of the ancient life found on Earth has since evolved (sometimes in extraordinary fashion) from their once-but-also-subjectively-ep...
The Friends of the Saskatoon Afforestation Areas Inc. think that the City of Saskatoon and the Meewasin Valley Authority had a great idea here in Saskatoon to compile a natural inventory database. You cannot protect what you do not know, and that is true for everywhere!
Remember to record through the iNaturalist app any living organism, plants, mushrooms, insects and wildlife observa...
