Help us conduct community science on the pollinator pathway! There are a few ways to get started and join a project. Join iNaturalist by installing the app on your phone and creating an account. On a mobile device, open the App Store or Google Play and search for “iNaturalist”, select & install App. Open the App and either sign in with social media accounts or create an iNaturalist account. (Or with a computer, on the internet, go to www.iNaturalist.org click on “Sign up” to join iNaturalist, and create an account). Click on your username to edit your profile, keep in mind this is a public site. You can now browse iNaturalist observations, join local projects, and upload your own observations!

The next step is to join the pollinator pathway project page! Click on “Projects”; type the project name “Pollinator Pathway” into the search box and press enter/search. Click on the project of interest. Select the project and click “Join” or “Join this project”. If you are on a computer, on a website, confirm by clicking “Yes I want to join this project” found at bottom of the page, towards the left, (mobile devices don’t require this step).

Now that you are a part of the Pollinator Pathway Community Science team, here is how to help us conduct research. Photograph plants and animals you find and note their location, as well as any interesting features. Open the app and click the add observation button, depending on your device it will either be an “observe”, ”+”, or “add observations”. You can choose to take a photo, upload stored photos, or record without photos. To add one or more photos of observation as evidence use whichever version of the add photo/media “+” button is available on your device or computer. Once images are added, if you know what you have seen add it. When it was seen should be added automatically, but if it has not, enter in date and time. Add where the observation took place. Finally, select “save your observation”. This will automatically upload your observation to the data pool and once identified will be added to the Pollinator Pathway Project.

We have lots of ongoing community science such as the Native Plant Project and Plant-a-Tree, Log-a-Tree. As well as seasonal observation projects such as June Pollinator Bioblitz and July Moth Month.

Hello Pollinator Pathways Members,

I want to thank you for participating in our on going research. We have been hard at work streamlining the various native plant and pollinator species projects. Many have been changed to only record members data. So if you have not joined please do! We really need the participation to make this work.

I'm listing the links for each project, if you are interested click the join project button or join all and be one of our angle contributors. We truly appreciate you and happy native plant month.

Hello Gardeners,

If you are planting a native plant garden, please consider photographing and logging your planting. You can go a step farther by joining Pollinator Pathways (pollinator-pathway.org). To take part in this community science initiative, participants can post a photo and more details on iNaturalist and select project "Pollinator Pathway". Happy Citizen Science Month, thank you for all your efforts in protecting our planets amazing biodiversity.

Join inaturalist project "Pollinator Bioblitz 2020" help us blitz the month of June
In honor of Pollinator Week (June 22nd-28th), Pollinator Pathways (pollinator-pathways.org) will be hosting a month long Pollinator BioBlitz. Community Scientists are asked to photograph bees, butterflies, moths, beetles, and flies. Next add project “Pollinator Pathways”. Then start logging your observations. All ages and abilities are encouraged to find and explore the many species that live in your hometown, take photos, and share with scientists on inaturalist. You can go a step farther by joining Pollinator Pathways (pollinator-pathway.org) and planting native, nectar-producing plants in your communities, schools and backyards across the area. Pollinators can be difficult to identify, so observers are encouraged to post what they know, which may be a simple description of the species or its behavior. To take part in this community science initiative, participants can post a photo and more details on iNaturalist and select project "Pollinator Bioblitz 2020". Happy pollinator week and thank you for your help in furthering our research.
