he/him

Current UWaterloo ENV student exploring SW Ontario (primarily Waterloo Region)! I have a particular interest in the reptiles, amphibians, and fishes of Ontario, and have dedicated much of my free time to identifying and observing these species. Here on iNat I am proudly named after the genus Lithobates, which 6 of Ontario's native frogs belong to, and describe many common American frogs.

Range maps of animals best describe their adaptations in the wild, and as such, I find it especially important to examine outliers, whether they be transplanted individuals, natural migrations, or undiscovered/under-represented populations.

My places of interest include Ontario, my home province, the East Coast of the United States, and the Hawaiian Islands, which I am privileged to regularly visit!

I almost always am just using my iPhone to photograph and submit my observations.

Feel free to tag me in an observation for help with identification! :)
