(Late) March Discussion Post: What are some of your favorite backyard observations?

Hi folks,

Time for another monthly iNaturalist Journal discussion post! As we get into spring I’m excited to start seeing all sorts of native wildlife around my hometown and close by, including a bunch of different herp species. With that in mind, I’ve been thinking about appreciation for native species a lot lately, so my question is this: what are y’all’s favorite backyard species to encounter and observe? It’s easy to appreciate unique species observed at destination locations, but what wildlife do you often encounter that you are always excited to make an observation of? For me I’d say it has to be moths. There are all sorts of native moths in the southeast, and I always get excited to encounter a Luna moth or one of the many other species living close by and snap a few pics for iNaturalist. Can’t wait to hear what y’all have to say!

Always Wild,
Drew
