Most importantly it’s just fun and I’m constantly learning by interacting with the community there. I’ve interacted with world renowned experts on there just by chance which is also interesting. @Quercus, are you an IDer? I wonder if we’ve interacted there without knowing.

Only half as much as I observe 😅 I'm not confident enough to ID outside of the Mid-Atlantic, sticking mostly to Erigeron sp, pokeberry, some trees, and a handful of bugs.
I wholeheartedly agree, the community there is awesome! It's so exciting when an expert or specialist IDs an observation of mine, or dis/agrees with my ID. Such a fun way to learn.
