Observed Biodiversity

A growing record of the flora and fauna I encounter in this plot. I am starting small and will only publish real observations, with date, context and level of certainty when available.

What belongs in this record

Birds heard at dawn, spontaneous plants, insects, fungi, reptiles and other encounters found in the field. This is not an official inventory or a closed list: it is a portfolio of observations that I will build over time.

Identifying without pretending certainty

An app can help start an identification, but it does not turn one photograph or sound into confirmation. Each entry will say whether it is a provisional app identification, a field observation or an externally confirmed reference.

Birds · sound

BirdNET can suggest an initial identification from an audio recording. The recording, time, habitat and repeated observation help show whether that hypothesis makes sense.

Flora · image

PictureThis can offer an initial hypothesis for photographed plants. Before I publish an identification with greater confidence, I compare leaves, flowers, habit and context with external references.

Flora

Spontaneous plants, trees, shrubs, flowers and fungi observed in the plot.

Birds

Birds seen or heard, with date, sound or image context when available.

Insects and other invertebrates

Pollinators, decomposers and other small encounters worth recording.

Other encounters

Reptiles, amphibians, mammals or signs of presence, only when carefully observed.

No entries published yet

This page is ready to receive real observations. When there is a photograph, audio recording or encounter I want to document, it will appear here with the information I can verify.

Format of each entry

Where possible, each record will include: photograph or audio, common and scientific name, date or season, general project area, identification method, certainty level and a short observation note. Exact locations of species or sensitive points are not published.
