Diario del proyecto Association plants for BC native Bees

Just a quick note to say that casual observations have been added to the filters for this project. The rational is that many pollinator observations occur on plants that have been introduced. The project was made to help recognize plants that bees are active with. I have left off Needs ID for now as helping to ID those plants was not the ambition here but more as a way to recognize known plants - there is a good chance that the casuals will be known but moved to casual. Hope that makes sense.

Below is a table with some fields that are in searches that will look for Bees Epifamily Anthophila (taxon_id=630955) that were recorded as being associated with the various Plant taxon as listed in the table below using the URL search:

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=any&subview=map&taxon_id=Fauna Taxon ID Number of Choice&verifiable=any&field:Field of Choice=Flora Taxon of Choice Number)
for instance:
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=any&subview=map&taxon_id=630955&verifiable=any&field:Interaction-%3EVisited%20flower%20of=48561

One could look just for Bombus by substituting in the Taxon ID Number of 52775 eg https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=any&subview=map&taxon_id=52775&verifiable=any&field:Interaction-%3EVisited%20flower%20of=48561

Current numbers of bees as of today's date posting are in brackets eg =48561 (245)

For the last Field the datatype was not based on taxon but instead text was selected which results in the taxon number not yielding a result.

I'll try to add references here as I become aware of them
