We are getting close to the 1000 species mark on iNaturalist! A total of 993 species have been identified so far as part of the Biodiversity of the Anacostia River Project. Thanks very much everyone! Keep entering new observations or help us identify the observations that still need ID.
Kudos to @mellis , @jmgconsult, @carrieseltzer, @muir, @mkoenig, and @rgauzagronert the project's top six observers. But thanks everybody for your observations and identifications, you are really running this project!
Happy fall and happy nature watching!

Yay! There are many observations within the watershed that also haven't been added to the project yet. I am bulk adding several hundred more of mine..that put it over 1000! Check out this search: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?captive=any&place_id=120938&verifiable=any&view=observers
Over 2000 species and 20,000 observations! And 900 people! @belyykit has the most by far in the watershed... you should join!
Also, apologies in advance for making the passionflower the most observed species in the project! And carpenter bees second. Those are entirely driven by the monitoring of the passionfruit in my yard...
Thanks! I'm in!

I'm trying to add my past observations to the project. But if I choose "batch edit," do I need to sort out the observations that are within the watershed or the project setting will automatically excluding the observations that are not within the watershed? To manually sort out relevant observations would be very time consuming...
@belyykit if you choose from the project page something like "add from my observations" it will search all your obs within the boundary and you can just batch edit to add all of those to the project. It will still take a while but it at least filters by range :-)
@carrieseltzer Thanks! This turned out to be a very easy process. Got all my observations added!
Thanks so much Carrie et all! During the winter months I will encourage people to ID observations, and do that myself. I know a lot may be impossible to determine but it would be great if we can determine more species from the observations already entered.
Yes, it's a great idea to try and do more IDs during the winter! I'm sure there are more species that can still be identified from existing observations. :-)
