Slovakia - iNaturalist World Tour

We're in Slovakia for the 69th stop on the iNaturalist World Tour! The top observer is @fero has observations centered in the Žilina Region. @fero runs Birding Slovakia and is in the top 400 observers on iNaturalist with observations from around the world. Most of the other top observers such as @martind, @vierka, @marian_tulak, @anbalemans, @matpei also have observations centered in the Žilina Region. The second top observer, @drakoslav, has observations centered to the south in the Nitra Region. @tomasm2's observations are centered in the far west Trnava Region, while other top observers such as @ondrej3 and @rsl are centered elsewhere in the country.

The number of observations per month has been ramping up the last three years. @fero has done some work translating iNaturalist into Slovakian and outreach to Slovakian birders during this time.

As with many countries in Europe, the top identifiers for plants, birds, and insects are @duch, @ldacosta, and @borisb. @duch is botanist at the Czech National Museum. Thanks to other top identifiers such as @zizou identifying from France and @wojtest identifying from Poland.

What can we do to get more people in Slovakia involved in iNaturalist? Please share your thoughts below or on this forum thread

@fero @drakoslav @martind @vierka @tomasm2 @ldacosta @borisb @zizou @wojtest @duch
