Greenbrier/Carrionflower collaboration outing 2018

Interesting day today meeting up with Janet Wright (janetwright) of the iNaturalist community who happened to be passed through the area. I had fun spending the day out doing something instead of being alone at home. I did appreciate the further opportunity to photography and explore more of the Starved Rock Area.
A shout out to Janet who gave me the excuse to be in the area at and around Illinois Canyon. If she had not accepted my help in finding some greenbriers I would not have had the observations today that I did. I hope to post the observations soon and attach some to this entry.
Some species today included:
Unusual/rare: Skipjack shad, round goby
Other: Bristly Greenbrier, carrionflowers, bloodroot, American white pelican, bluegill, green sunfish, waterleaf, raccoon, spiderwort, northern watersnake, false soloman's seal, mayapple

2018 Greenbrier check of Spring Lake Park, Streator, Illinois

I wanted to take a look at this group of plants at this park just to do so. Found some nice representative groups.

Donated Phone/Camera Received 6/24/2018: New Goals

I have to admit that my camera equipment so far has been limited by the lack of geo-tagging and/or gps tags direct to the photos. A great deal of time is spent on location. As of this week I managed to receive a new camera/phone that is hopefully going to be dedicated to getting locations set in stone. Eventually observations on this listing should include a precise location tag that should allow for better everything in my opinion.
July goals will hopefully include:
Full surveys of some previous locations in order to have a location map that improves previous observations already posted.
Mass entries of some locations due to the ability to survey and have exact locations.
Full exploration of areas that don't have adequate mapping in order to produce a "site map" that all can refer to.
More detailed listings of locations now that the locations of some species can be determined. Many species and sites had to be skipped to allow for decreased mapping discrepancies. I will try to revisit these species.
The increase of photo quality to what many other observers have.
The increase of species observable and photos achieved due to greater resolution and battery life.
