All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

See also our Environment community, which is focused on weather, climate, climate change, and stuff like that.

Thank you! I like nature homework. Taking up photography has made me more aware of the variations and families of plants. ๐ŸŒž๐ŸŒฟ

I absolutely love hearing things like this! In case you're not familiar, I'd highly encourage you to make this hobby even more useful by submitting photos to iNaturalist - they share photos and location data with students and researchers for population studies, and it's got a pretty decent image recognition rate for suggesting which species you're looking at.
