Hi John B. no worries I am usually not that quick in responding as well :)
I think it is really a beautiful initiative of you to create a local biodiversity catalogue. I myself live in an urban setting, but still even in the local park nearby there's an abundant of plant and animal life. Sadly you are right we as a species have abused and still are abusing this beautiful planet (and I am just as guilty as the next person) but I try to focus on these little nuggets of hapiness. I have joined Project Noah years ago and despite a short hiatus this community is very dear to me. I hope you'll experience it in the same fashion:)
Have a great day John B.

Thanks you once more as well, John B. You seem like a very kindhearted and inquisitive person so I think you'll do well in the Project Noah community:) There are a lot of like-minded people as you might have noticed. I surely would like to keep in touch from time to time with you. Have a nice day John. B.

My pleasure John B. and thank you too for the kind and encouraging words.
It is true that I am absolutely in love with the kingdom of fungi, but I am in no way an expert on the subject. Just an amateur with a passion for mushrooms :) Over the years though I have learned to look for certain identification features which makes it a bit easier to find a possible ID. One other thing I have also learned from trying to identify fungi from photos and fieldnotes is that usually nothing conclusive can be drawn and in most cases you would need microscopic investigation to be certain. By the way I have enjoyed browsing through your spotting, such diversity and great notes to read. So thank you for sharing your beautiful spottings. Greetings Jae.

Cool spotting, SargonR. Those are probably harvestmen, Opiliones order.

Beautiful spotting, robert emond.

Gorgeous snake. Great spotting, Tukup!

Awesome spotting, Tukup.

Con mucho gusto, Augusto.

Thanks you very much for you kind comment, Tukup. I hope you'll have a great season with lots of spottings. Can't wait tot see some of these Nebraskan beauties 😁

Great serie of photos, Marek.
