Do you remember this mysterious tweet? https://twitter.com/jacki_liddle/status/1265083848611618816">https://twitter.com/jacki_lid...

So this: https://zookeys.pensoft.net/article/52910/list/11/">https://zookeys.pensoft.net/article/5... is the publication I am excited for! This is Mr11& #39;s first authorship. It relates to a photograph he took on a bushwalk (in Mt Glorious) and shared via @QuestaGame This paper led by @Ske_Jo who included a number of citizen scientists in his work

This was a very exciting thing for Mr11 to be involved in (& he got insights into different aspect of classification of species, and how that works and changes over time); as well as some insights into science and publication timeframes and steps. (He took the pic when he was 9)

So we are feeling very grateful to all those supporting citizen science - and the ways that people can get involved in protecting and documenting their local wildlife https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🦗" title="Cricket" aria-label="Emoji: Cricket"> ping @CitSciOZ
