Thing #7 exploring flickr

Clark's River National Wildlife Refuge May Trip, a set on Flickr.

These are just a few of the plants that Rob and I collected on our trip to CRNWR in May. The plants are from various habitats including roadsides, bottomland hardwoods, and reforested stands.

I had already created an account with Flickr before creating this blog.  I like all that Flickr has to offer with sharing and posting photos.  It is really easy to upload, edit, and share photos.  I really enjoy taking great photos and sharing them with the public.  I look at it as enhancing the web and the educational opportunities it has to offer.  If my photos are used to help others learn different species then I will be happy.  I will definitely use Flickr for classroom photos and to enhance my students educational experience.  The only other photo hosting service I have used is Facebook.  I like Flickr because it has more options for tagging and editing photos than Facebook does.  However, more people are on Facebook, and thus more people are able to see the albums I post there.
