Nominate your favorite observations, & Write to your favourite identifiers

Dear Friends

The amazing Monsoon Beauty event ended at 00:00 hours midnight of 5th /6th September 2021

We are taking some time to organise the results and will share them soon.

Meanwhile we would like you to share your favourite observations (or interactions)

You may share your observation as a simple posting of link with a comment - preferably @ tag the observer

For posting images (Inaturalist ones only) there is no drag and drop so one must use for html coding options to share images. To help with this we have posted a simple how to below.

Nominate your favourite observations from the Monsoon beauty 2021 Event

Someone else's observation, or your own. Write what you liked about them.

In the interest of non spamming sanity we request you to post just one, or maximum two observations.

Write to your favourite identifier

Identifiers have been our guides, without them our experience would be so much poorer. Write to them (preferably direct message them) and let them know how valuable their help has been to you personally.

If you would like to share your experiences with some of these fine identifiers you could share that in the comments as well.

Share any interaction that helped you or was relevant

The open and interactive nature of iNaturalist is what makes this community great. If there were any interactions that helped you, or that you benefited from and if they are in the public domain and should you would like to share please do share those in the comments as well.

I would like to thank @ram_k for leading this wonderful initiative. Without you this perhaps may have not been this successful. I joined iNAt only during the month July 2021 and in such a short span of time I have learned so much, and along the way witnessed some unique and rare organisms indeed.
Among the observations I liked, was @ram_k ‘s observation
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/89773264
which was the first in the world on this forum, positively identified, for this moth species with a fiery pattern which I find very striking.

Also I would like to thank @pierotoni10 , @unnikrishnan_mp , @hkmoths , @sivabirds , @borisb & @chayantgonsalves amongst others for confirming/correcting my IDs. These IDs were definitely very encouraging and inspiring; to learn more, to identify more and to uncover more species.

All in all, this community has really opened a whole new world, and personally for me to be more appreciative of even the tiniest and commonest organisms and the role they each play in the delicate balance of Mother Nature!
Thank you all!

Thank you and congratulations are in order for @ram_k for taking this mantle on your shoulders in successfully organizing such an amazing event. Had it not been for your invitation I would have been oblivious to the majesties that mother nature has to offer, in even the simplest of organisms.

The observation that intrigued me (and the one I liked) the most was @ram_k ‘s observation
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/89517110
which demonstrated phorensis between the mites and a beetle, which underscores the complex and interconnected relationships between different organisms, and by extension between us and nature.

Thank you @pierotoni10 @borisb @unnikrishnan_mp @hkmoths @wongun , et. al. for your guidance and in helping me with the IDs. I can’t stress this enough but, getting positive IDs from you all is the driving force and the inspiration to go out, observe more, learn more and to appreciate & value even the seemingly mundane organism nature has to offer.
Thank you and well done guys!!
