Welcome to the class iNat project!

Hi everyone!
The observations you make over the length of the course (Week 1 to Week 10) will be automatically collected in this project. You do not need to add them manually. We'll briefly go over this project during the first class, and your technical iNat questions should be covered in Tony Iwane's presentations - the recording with the basics and his presentation on Thursday the 3rd. Message or tag @grassrootsecology with any additional questions!

Remember:

• Make at least 10 observations during the course.
• Always give your observation some kind of rough identification even if you don't exactly know what it is (Animal, Plant, Fungi are fine!). No "Unknowns" please :).
• Use the iNat suggestions to help you get an ID, but don't rely on those exclusively. Only ID to a level that you are confident in (see above), the community will help with the rest!
• Label your observation Captive/Cultivated if necessary.
• If you're observing near your home, consider obscuring the geolocation.
• Help ID fellow Cal Nats' observations if you can!
• Review, comment on, and ask questions of each other's observations.
• This isn't a competition!
• Go beyond the identification - learn more about the organism you observed by visiting its taxon page.

Happy iNat-ing!
