I tried getting into this a couple of years ago. I wasn't very successful so I kind of gave up. All I was able to find were a few box turtles, a single rough earth snake, and a fuck ton of redback salamanders. Probably would have gotten more out of it if I'd had friends to do it with but I'm a lonely 4channer so that wasn't really an option.

I'd be curious to know what types of spots you guys usually go to. I mostly stuck to state parks since this is Tennessee and I don't want to get shot because I accidentally wandered onto someone's property. I've heard that road cruising at night is pretty good for finding herps but again this seems like something that would be better with a group of people.

It looks green from above water as well in my region of the world some season of the year. It’s algae.

Oh you're doing all that shit after the fact, I see. Yeah no wonder you're having a hard time. The app's intended use at least in my interpretation is to record observations while birding, not after the fact.

>is that a somewhat rare bird? we need proof or youre a liar
I'm still mad at ebird for not officially recognizing a sighting I had in 2018 even though I included a picture. No response at all, just completely ignored while all the other people's sightings, even without pics, got approved.
>>
>>4776285
Some reviewers are better than others. the reviewer for a couple counties over from me was not confirming Common Crane sightings despite identical examples from the Macauley Library and a bird guide from Mongolia giving his opinion that it was not a Common x Sandhill hybrid. I have also seen a Cooper's Hawk confirmed as a Red-Shouldered Hawk and it had a clear photo attached. Another reason I don't even bother with eBird. I just use Rare Bird Whatsapp groups for alerts.

The castration of animal "pets" is a barbaric practice motivated by the belief that it makes them more docile. It's a violation of their bodily autonomy and should be illegal.
