TPWD iNaturalist video -- lucky to be part of the community!

I'm sooooo dang lucky. Lucky in many ways -- lucky to be in relatively good health, lucky to live in an area where there's ample wildlife year around, and lucky to have a job that I love! I'm also super lucky that I'm allowed to utilize iNaturalist both personally and professionally.

Last year, I was part of a little iNaturalist video that the Texas Parks and Wildlife Show put together. Well, it's up on youtube now!

I hope the biggest takeaways from the video are not about me, but about the tool and the community here on iNaturalist. In the midst of a lot of bad news all over the place, this community is a good reminder of hope -- lots of folks engaging with nature around the world. And that's pretty dang cool. :)

I feel slightly better that I can't always figure out how to pronounce scientific names :D

Thank you for teaching people how to use iNat! You (and iNat!) make such a big difference in what we know about where we live.

Hello @grroschat! Wanted to share this observation of @sanbiology and the gopher mounds at the McAllen TMN 2023 Conference with you. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/188585726. You are even included in one of the photos! Great to meet you there. Sam really gave us a lesson and demonstration on gophers! Wow!
