January 7 - 2022 Observer Recognition
2022 Top Observers
Here is a subjective list of the top 25 contributors to the Ohio Dragonfly Survey project for 2022. We appreciate all the contributions and effort that goes into this project, but wanted to recognize individual efforts that are significant based on iNat submissions. Each name listed represents many hours of work/play. The sort is a combination of observations and species.

For some context.
This group averages out to over 1,000 observations for the year; an average of nearly 65 species observed; and nearly 75 days in the field. This covers over 75% of the records for the year, and all but 1 of the species (Little Blue Dragonlet). Every day represented in the 2022 data includes submission from several of these observers.
The 4,144 monicap273 observations are the most ever for a single season, far ahead of #2 (jimlem 3,725 in 2019). Impressive effort for monicap273. Almost 60 research grade observations for every day monicap273 was in the field.
36 counties for (again) monicap273 represents lots of road time. This comes in at #10 all time. The most counties visited in a season was dmcshaffrey in 2019 with total of 72 counties.
Days in the field had roamingthewoods at the top with 145. Another impressive effort. Incredibly enough, 145 is behind previous top numbers, all by roamingthewoods - 150 days in 2021, 148 in 2020. (This may represent virtually every day there was sunshine in Ashtabula County.)
108 species observed is the 4th year over 100 for jimlem: 103 in 2019; 114 in 2020; 112 in 2021; 108 in 2022. Maybe I can make it 5 in 2023.
smwhite had the greatest observation span: Mar 6 to Nov 9. Best ever!
jcefus had the most species (71) in a county (Stark). This ties the high mark set by ricknirschl (Lucas) in 2019.
quddy had the most species (30) reported on a single day (6/28). This is just behind 7 jimlem days in 2019-2021 that had 31 or 32 species.
