I think the title says it all :) Go for it and have fun!!

@tiwane wrote this great post about the Gallformers team, right on time for Gall Week - meet the people that help us identify all our galls, and read some tips about documenting galls - https://www.inaturalist.org/posts/83909-identifier-profile-gallformers
And go out and document galls!
Make observations = take photos between 9/2-10, and upload them soon thereafter if you can. And have fun!

Hello Everyone,

Thank you to everyone who participated in the project! If you haven't already be sure to check out the Identifier Profile about the Gallformers Team and the Cynipini Larval Sequencing Project.

Event sticker ordering has closed. The alcohol ink and digital art piece, pictured below, was designed by Chelsea Niles, and features the host plant fireweed, Chamaenerion angustifolium, and two if its galls induced by a midge and a moth. Sticker size is 1.5" by 3.75".

Chelsea is the Program Manager for Interpretation at Lake Clark National Park and Preserve, and a stained glass artist in her spare time. She graciously volunteered to make another design for the event (she made the last two event designs as well) in her free time at home. Thank you Chelsea!

Orders will be open through the 15th of September. Stickers will be $2 to help cover the cost of ink, sheets, and stamps.

Unfortunately, due to the amount of customs paperwork I would have to fill out to send each order outside of the US, I can only mail to US addresses.

Thank you all again for the work you all have put into this project and let me know if you have questions in the comments.

Thanks everyone for participating in our 4th Gall Week event! We had the highest number of observers and observations so far, as you can see on our new umbrella project - https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/gall-week-umbrella-project
If you took any photos during Gall Week (9/2-10) you can still upload them and add them to the project, but please do not add later observations (of photos taken after 9/10). Now it's time to finish uploading your last photos and help identify galls, add annotations and field info (info here - https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/gall-week-september-2023/journal/83717-gall-week-sept-2023-what-about-those-observation-fields)
You can still order the new Gall Week sticker designed by Chelsea Niles - https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/gall-week-september-2023/journal/84074-gall-week-sticker
Also, I'd love to hear from people what were your favorite galls - either your own observations or someone else's, and what was your favorite adventure!
And one last thing - was this good timing for a gall week event where you live?
See you in the spring!
Merav
