question's encouraged - just send me a dm
based in mid missouri
i hope to find and photograph all of missouri's sparrows (with a few drops/adds). i figure completing this goal will require visiting all regions of the state, all types of ecosystems, at different times of the year. this process should bring me in contact with a large portions of the states organisms, geographical features, state parks, and any odds/ends i need to check off/out.

brad jacob's "birds in missouri" is worth mentioning, what a great book.
inat projects below -
Revisit some lower quality observations of common species and clean them up, make them higher quality. Most of these just have poor photos, as I wasn't taking them for aesthetics, but to just document them.
Double Check Photos for hiding species (always on the list, always finding stuff....)
Looking for these things,
