Why do we usually nature journal one organism or species at a time? How can we nature journal inter-species relationships?<\/p>\n

Today’s Prompt: Inter-species Relationship<\/h3>\n

There are a lot of interesting relationships in nature. Some of the most interesting are those between members of different species. How can we capture these relationships in our nature journals? It is easy to end up with pages and pages of species profiles. In so doing, our nature journal ends up looking like the diary of an Edwardian Lady<\/a>. Luckily, nature journaling has come a long way since then. Let’s look at some ways to explore relationships in our nature journals.<\/p>\n

How to nature journal inter-species relationships<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. First, let’s start easy. I like to nature journal flowers and their visitors. One strategy is to just sit next to a flowering plant, nature journaling the plant and keeping notes on all the animals that visit the flower. (see the example page below). One word of caution: don’t assume something is a pollinator just because it is a bug on a flower.<\/li>\n
  2. Predator-prey. One of the most exciting events we can witness in nature is a hunt! While this is a rare event to see in the wild you can prepare for it and you could also simulate this from a video. You can also witness and explore on your pages other aspects of predator prey relationship besides a hunt.<\/li>\n
  3. Perhaps you’d prefer the vegetarian option. Herbivore-prey relationships are everywhere. Look for bugs. Think outside the box.<\/li>\n
  4. Don’t forget that plants are actors too. They are not just passive. Can you observe a relationship between two or more plants? What abut fungi?<\/li>\n
  5. Lastly, get personal. What about relationships you have with other species? Have you ever nature journaled those?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Here is a page that I did while observing many different insects interacting with a flower in Baja California Mexico.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

    Here is one of my favorite nature journaling approaches. Sit at a flowering plant and nature journal the plant and its relationships. What insects visit? What about birds? Are there any ambush predators hiding in the flowers? What about herbivores? Are some of the bugs that visit just eating the plant? What is the definition of a pollinator? Are there interactions between the bugs? Are any of the bugs mimicking the others? You sure that is a bee?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

    But what if I’m completely new to nature journaling?<\/h2>\n
