Scavenger Hunt Check-In
Hey, how are we all doing?
The scavenger hunt has been in for a little while now, but if you haven't started, theres still time for you to jump on in while still earning the highest level badges!
Speaking of badges, for those who haven't noticed, I updated the badges page to make it easier for you to post the images. I had mine on my user profile page, but moved them into a journal post.
In the comments of this post, I invite you all to post your lists, your favorite observations made during the challenge, anything like that.
Here's my journal so far:

I'm nearly done but still have a handful left.
I also decided to add all the observations i used for the list as associated observations on the journal post. The tool to do that is located right next to the journal editing tool, but its very tedious. I, however, like tedious so I had fun doing it, but you don't have to do that. If you do, you just check off all the observations you want to add, and hit the "next" button to keep scrolling through your observations.
Don't forget I set up a quick survey so I can assess the strengths and weaknesses of how this was executed. I've got some ideas for other events so input would be really appreciated!
So, how's it going?? :D

@druidic it really is a beauty! i still cant imagine how it looks in person.
and yeah, basically, i feel like anything that has a "badge" and therefore (ideally) obscures the location counts, which yours does (NT)! also, if iNat doesnt mark it such but you know better, go right on ahead! iNaturalist is a great guide, but like anything else, is definitely not perfect all the time.
i changed my "shell" observation, it was a snail but i loved this too much

I just need to add a pupa and I'll be done!

@jef nice! good luck!
@druidic whats weird is i see a lot of times the conservation status is listed by state, like i might see some egrets are just fine here but i look up north in another state and see a red EN badge - why that would be for subsets of the same country and not for literal different countries, like, a country that is on a separate island from the rest of the continent, baffles me
My list is here. It's raining today and I'm procrastinating posting my Peru observations so I'm tackling associating the observations with that journal post. I don't know if I can name a favorite from this bunch, but it could be the Tiger Swallowtail butterfly. That or the bumble bee just because it's a bumble bee. :D
i just got what i think is a weird one for mating behavior, if it is indeed mating behavior. two different species of periwinkle attempting to mate

(and despite how often im around water, i somehow have yet to observe a plant coming out of water.)
@kuchipatchis Conservation status varies by state because each state sets the status independently from one another. An animal may be more rare in one state than another, and each state can set a conservation status separate from other states or from the Federal government.
ever true to my character, i have finished on the exact last day to get the highest level badge
