I am thinking about continuing the Llano Estacado Spring umbrella bioblitz project again this year, even though now both Amarillo and Lubbock are in the City Nature Challenge. West Texas and Eastern New Mexico bounded by the Pecos and Canadian rivers is a huge area that gets little respect ("there ain't nuttin' out there') and this is a way of presenting what we have and comparing ourselves to other parts of Texas and the Southwest.

If I could I would cut out Amarillo and Lubbock so observers from the Permian Basin, San Angelo, and Eastern New Mexico could avoid being swamped by observations from the bigger cities, but it is difficult to impossible to carve up the iNat "place" map that way.
