May 5th - Observe some flies!

Heyo, fly folk!

My goal for you all this week is to go outside and find any one fly to upload to iNat. It can be a muscoid, cecid, even a culicid. For extra points, find five (or more!).

Have fun!

May 12 - Get to work :)

Heyo, fly folk!

My goal for you all this week is to make as many identifications as possible towards this group of species that we have learned in past meetings (e.g. Musca domestica, Lucilia sericata, etc.).

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/identify?order_by=random&place_id=1%2C6712&taxon_id=120156,128824,197039,333264,133769,51557,258813,126214,329781

We are currently at 28,276 obs. Given my lack of other ideas, and the need for effort here, this will probably be your goal for several weeks.

Have fun!
