Turn off 'only verifiable' to see all my observations.

Add GBIF-observations to INaturalist maps by clicking the legenda button in the upper right corner of a map (incl. the GBIF-exports of waarnemingen.nl/waarnemingen.be/ observado.org).

Excursions Plantenwerkgroep Genk (PWGenk) - Since 2016 RutgerB (the person to whom I owe a big part of my plant knowledge) and I have a plant study group for prospecting wild flora in Genk (Belgium). Interested? Feel free to join our sunday morning walks!

My microscope pictures: currently on hold because my microscope fell off the table.
