I grew up in Maryland where my interest in the natural world was nurtured from a young age. My interest started with the eastern box turtles and the birds at our backyard feeder. I now live in Central Texas and find iNaturalist to be a great tool to learn the flora/fauna of this incredibly diverse region.
