Uganda - iNaturalist World Tour
Its Week 13 of the iNaturalist World Tour. This week we'll visit Uganda, Mozambique, and Eswatini (formerly Swaziland) in Africa, Belarus, and Hungary in Europe, Kazakhstan in Eurasia and Martinique in the Caribbean.
We begin in Uganda. The top observer, @annikaml, has observations clustered around Mweya on the shores of Lake Edward in the west. The second top observer, @wildnothos, has observations clustered around the capital of Kampala on the shores of Lake Victoria to the east. Most of the top observers have observations clustered between these two locals such as @davidbygott, @nikborrow, @mathiasdhaen, @tapaculo99, @hdemann, and @nadyky.
The number of observations per month has been slowly climbing the last few years and jumped up in the most recent two months.
@jakob is the top identifier. @johnnybirder, @cabintom, and @michalsloviak lead in the top three categories of birds, insects and mammals respectively. Thanks to other top identifiers such as @davidbygott and @ldacosta
What can we do to improve iNaturalist in Uganda? Please share your thoughts below or on this forum thread.

It looks like many of the top observers here are tourists and tour guides - we tend to focus in and around the most popular tourist destinations, with not a lot of time to stop in between or to explore the rest of the country. I guess we need to reach out to resident naturalists to participate more. Is there a standard letter we can use to invite and excite our contacts?
I would like to thank @cabintom for his id help on Afrotroipical butterflies in general. He has been so helpful in identifying some butterflies, which I has no clue, what they are.
@vijaybarve Thank you for the kind words.
I would also like to thank those who have helped with my Uganda sightings. @cabintom has helped a lot with the butterflies!
