2022 Goals

My goals for 2022 were,
250 species of birds observed in the year.
350 lifetime species of birds. I started with 317.
See 25 species of birds in each of Idaho’s 44 counties.
1000 taxa on iNaturalist.

I completed my goal of 250 species for the year on 16 November, with the Pacific Wren being bird 250. I got one more species later that day with the Pacific Loon to finish the year at 251. I missed my goal of getting to 350 lifetime species by the end of the year. I needed to add 33 species and only added 10. They were the Common Redpoll, Gray-crowned Rosy-Finch, Long-tailed Duck, Verdin, Lark Bunting, Gray Partridge, Blue Grosbeak, Wandering Tattler, Surf Scoter, and Yellow-throated Warbler. I did not get 25 species in all 44 counties of Idaho. I did get at least one species in every county and 32 of 44 counties had at least 25 species seen, almost 73%. Canyon County had the most with 174 species and Teton County had the least with 3 species. I completed the 1000 taxa uploaded to iNaturalist on 6 August. I finished the year with 5638 observations, 1,222 species with 774 of those being research grade.

My goals for 2023 are,
To help Christi complete her counties of Idaho.
1000 research grade species on iNaturalist.
To add at least 10 new species each in Mammals, Birds, Fish, Amphibians & Reptiles plus at least 25 new plants & insects on iNaturalist.
350 lifetime bird species. (23 new species for the year)
300 lifetime birds for Idaho. (Need 29 new species)
A checklist every day on Ebird and an observation every day on iNaturalist.

Progress is Made! As of May 16th I have completed the 10 new bird species uploaded to iNaturalist! They are not all research grade yet so this could change. They are White-throated Sparrow, Tri-colored Blackbird, Juniper Titmouse, Barred Owl, Harris Sparrow, Greylag Goose (feral), Woodhouse's Scrub-Jay, Red-necked Phalarope, Gray Partridge, and Gray Flycatcher. Hopefully more to come.

Thank you. If I could get plants ID'd they might have 25+ in them.

Well a couple more goals met! So far I have 56 new plant species and 26 new insect species reach grade this year. This meets my goal of 25 new research grade insect and plant species for the year.
