Just realized I've logged over 200 different native plant species in my county...
It started as a casual list on my phone, but hitting that number made me see how much I'd actually learned just by paying attention on walks. Anyone else have a personal count they're surprised by?
Wow, that's a huge number! I hit a similar point with birds a while back. What really helped me was making a simple spreadsheet on my computer (Google Sheets is free) to sort them by where and when I saw them. It turns that big list into something you can actually look back on and learn from, you know?
