I like to post photos of insects, which I don't know very well, and I also like to identify plants, which I do know pretty well.
I am happy to id something, if I can. If I do solve some botanical mystery for you, consider putting your photo under one of the Creative Commons licenses...what could be wrong with sharing botanical beauty and knowledge with the world?
If you are a nature photographer and you've got Japanese knotweed or Purple Loosestrife in your area, please consider joining the Life on the Japanese Knotweed or the Life on the Purple Loosestrife projects.

"uritca's eye and expertise on the plant prowl has been very educational viewing.
(And I am still looking for more life on the Purple Loosestrife! What next?)
I also look forward to her The "Bug of the Day" photos. :-)"26th June, 2006
