Great video - it is much clearer to me now! I will try to make the meeting as well, thanks.

How does one subscribe?

Αναρτήθηκε από ccburke πάνω από 2 χρόνια πριν

Thank you so much for watching it!

You should be automatically subscribed to a post once you make a comment, but in case you're not, at the semi-bottom of the page, right below the comment box where it says "Save Comment," there is a a line of text: "Subscribe to comments on this post"

Click on the "Subscribe" link in that text and it will say: "You are subscribed to comments on this post. Unsubscribe"

Again, I think it automatically subscribes you when you leave a comment.

@judy you asked to be notified about the Allograpta event, but I forgot, so here's the next one!

Don't worry if these flies don't interest you, if you'd like to be notified in the future let me know! Otherwise, feel free to ignore this mention.

Believe I'll be coming.

Ohhh! I'm excited to see these sessions are happening. I wish I'd known sooner! I won't be attending this one in particular because it only applies to the western part of the continent, and I'm very firmly in the far eastern portion, but I am looking forward to future sessions now that I am subscribed. Thanks!

I'll try to make it!

@scotiaspinner These sessions aren't just for your own observations, we're trying to get people comfortable with identifying flies so that the effort of identifying is spread out over more people! If you're particularly not interested in a species, that's a different case, but we can always use more help decreasing the number of Needs ID observations!

@zdanko Good point! I am definitely at the very bottom rung on the ladder of skill in identifying flies. Even with my own observations, I mostly am not even confident to a genus level, so I have not dared to try to identify others' observations when it comes to flies. I'm hoping that by attending some of your sessions, I can improve my skills to a point that I'd start to be more confident in assisting with identifications for others. At this stage, I typically only assist with identifying in the northeast US and eastern Canada, and that's mostly moths and birds, or classifying "unknowns," in which case I can pretty confidently identify to diptera. Perhaps attending your sessions will make me feel more brave about identifying others' observations outside my comfort zone! Admittedly, having watched this video, I would be fairly confident with identfiying C. longicornis in the western part of the continent. Thanks for making me think more broadly.

Just so you know, there is a lot more diversity in general in the East, so the West is actually probably a better place to start.

I missed this one, but would love to hear about upcoming events.

For sure! I'm in the process of setting up the next meeting, so an announcement will be posted as soon as possible.
