Going on a snow leopard expedition. Or studying the impact of rhinos on their environment. Or mapping biodiversity of birds in the Caribbean. There are numerous possibilities for people interested in science helping researchers to collect data. And thus, contribute to our knowledge of our environment.<\/p>\n<p>I was not on such a citizen science specific vacation. But I wanted to contribute to some science projects with my photographs.<\/p>\n<p>At the end, I supported three projects during my <a href=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/en\/whale-watching-in-the-azores-pico-island\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">whale watching<\/a> holidays in the Azores.

I very like iNaturalist, as it is a platform where people can help each other identifying species. Be it a plant, an animal or a funghi. Many very knowledgeable people help with their expertise identifying the species others had found.<\/p>\n<p>I experienced the advantages already during <a href=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/en\/category\/brazil\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">my journey through the south of Brazil<\/a>. On iNaturalist, I found help identifying bird species. In one occasion, an insect specialist let me know that I had seen the <a href=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/en\/searching-for-the-largest-monkey-of-south-america-in-brazil\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">largest known fly<\/a> on earth. Wow! I wouldn't have known this without the experts on iNaturalist!<\/p>\n<p>According to iNaturalist, every species contribution can help advance biodiversity science. The data on the iNaturalist platform is shared with data repositories in order to help scientists find the data which they need for their research.<\/p>\n<p>As I have used the platform in the past several times - and I try to regularly upload my findings - I used iNaturalist of course again when I was in the Azores. My aim was to record every - at least animal - species observation I could.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to know more about my observations on the iNaturalist platform, please visit my profile.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-23256-6\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-23256-6-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-23256-6-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"6\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<style type=\"text\/css\" media=\"screen\">\n.inat-widget { font-family: Georgia, serif; padding: 10px; line-height: 1;}\n.inat-widget-header {margin-bottom: 10px;}\n.inat-widget td {vertical-align: top; padding-bottom: 10px;}\n.inat-label { color: #888; }\n.inat-meta { font-size: smaller; margin-top: 3px; line-height: 1.2;}\n.inat-observation-body, .inat-user-body { padding-left: 10px; }\n.inat-observation-image {text-align: center;}\n.inat-observation-image, .inat-user-image { width: 48px; display: inline-block; }\n.inat-observation-image img, .inat-user-image img { max-width: 48px; }\n.inat-observation-image img { vertical-align: middle; }\n.inat-widget-small .inat-observation-image { display:block; float: left; margin: 0 3px 3px 0; height:48px;}\n.inat-label, .inat-value, .inat-user { font-family: \"Trebuchet MS\", Arial, sans-serif; }\n.inat-user-body {vertical-align: middle;}\n.inat-widget td.inat-user-body {vertical-align: middle;}\n.inat-widget .inat-footer td.inat-value {vertical-align: middle; padding-left: 10px;}\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"inat-widget\">\n<div class=\"inat-widget-header\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"iNaturalist\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\/assets\/logo-small.gif\" \/><\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<p>  <script type=\"text\/javascript\" charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\/observations\/tanjamh.widget?layout=large&limit=5&order=desc&order_by=observed_on\"><\/script><\/p>\n<table class=\"inat-footer\">\n<tr class=\"inat-user\">\n<td class=\"inat-user-image\">\n          <a border=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\/observations\/tanjamh\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"usericon\" src=\"https:\/\/static.inaturalist.org\/attachments\/users\/icons\/721199\/thumb.jpg?1618512128\" \/><\/a>\n        <\/td>\n<td class=\"inat-value\">\n        <strong><br \/>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\/observations\/tanjamh\">View tanjamh's observations \u00bb<\/a><br \/>\n        <\/strong>\n      <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-23256-7\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-23256-7-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-23256-7-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"7\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-23256-7-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\"><strong>Information:<\/strong> <\/span>There is another good citizen science platform which you can use for sharing nature observations or getting help identifying species.

Just take a picture of the coast and upload it on the Coastwards website. Participation is anonymous.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of the project is to better understand sea-level rise.<\/p>\n<p>However, before my journey to the Azores, I was checking the website of Coastwards to get to know if this project is still active. Although I couldn't find it out, I took photographs of coasts in the Azores anyway. Maybe the photographs are still of any help. And it is possible to look at the coasts of many places in the world.<\/p>\n<p>By all means, of course, I could not see the whole shoreline of Pico Island. I stayed in the west (Madalena) and took a car to explore some parts of the south, east and north.<\/p>\n<p>Close to Madalena I <a href=\"https:\/\/wildlife-travel.com\/en\/hiking-in-the-azores-pico-island\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hiked<\/a> the path \u201cVinhas da Cria\u00e7\u00e3o Velha\u201d (on the left). On another day, I rented a car and stopped in the south close to S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o where I found a very nice hiking trail along the coast (on the
