About me:
Pivoted from birding to PSL c.2014, pursued heavily across many taxonomic groups until 2022. Variously obsessed with bryos, then fungi, then inverts, now vascular plants. After years of 1.5 lifers a day average I'm now taking things a bit easy after tipping over 5k spp. Always a patch lister, regardless of taxonomic group, but enjoy a good day out/expedition. I haven't seen 1000 of anything! (yet)
