YOU. ARE. AWESOME!
Day four and the observation phase is officially over. Last year, we had 822 species, total. I said I was hoping for 1,000 this year. At the moment, we're at 1,119! Last year, we had 2,812 observations. This year, I said I wanted to hit 3,000. Right now, we're at 3,069! Last year, we had 139 observers. This year, we currently have 115. Okay, so we're down a few. But the ones we did have really worked their collective tails off!
All of these totals are sure to go up as we enter the identification phase. You can still upload observations. As long as they were taken between 12:01 am on Friday and 12:00 midnight tonight, the project will still capture them. shardintx asked in a comment about uploading Merlin sound files. I've had others ask, as well. I don't have direct experience, but there is a discussion on the iNat forum at https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/how-do-i-upload-a-merlin-audio-song-file-to-my-first-inaturalist-observation/41144
I'm too tired to do a breakdown tonight, but I want to take a moment to thank everyone who took part in the observation phase. As the title says, YOU ARE AWESOME!! Whether you contributed 400 observations or just one, every observation matters. When all is said and done, we'll have learned a lot about the flora, fauna, and funga of our six-county area. I hope you had fun. As Jane Lynch says, "If you had half as much fun as I did, then I had twice as much fun as you did." :-)
