Also, if anyone has an iphone 6/6S, I'd be happy to give you my awesome Revolver lens and case (like this https://ztylus.com/products/revolver-lens-attachment). I'll have iNaturalist stickers to give away too!
Tagging some top observers from CNC 2018 in case you're interested in joining the ID party at Nat Geo on Feb 28.

Also, I noticed @margaretchatham has been doing an amazing job going through last year's observations recently. Thanks, Margaret!
Carrie-
Will you be at the Friday orientation meeting? I'd love to have your Revolver lens and stickers.

--Meant to add, that I can't make 2/28 because I'm doing an orientation/training a with the Chesapeake Beach Green Team. Karyn
Yes, I'll be there on Friday for the CNC planning meeting! I can save it for you @karyn-nrd.
Update: We've got 27 people registered for Thursday's event, and it looks like lots of them are new to iNat, so if any of you more experienced folks want to come, it will help to spread the knowledge! @jacobogre @rock_flipper @ashley_bradford @lisam @jmgconsult @capitalnaturalist @botanygirl @calopteryx @rhondaridley @elizabeth1951 @tomarata @peggyo @bethkiser @karyn-nrd @noreenth @otorres @stephanieoberle @mmn_noriko
