Ask a Naturalist puffin logoAsk a Naturalist® has a new organizational layout that focuses on the correspondence we have with readers, and the process of answering questions. We’ll still be writing more in-depth articles about tricky questions, but for questions with simpler answers, you’ll see them here, as “Correspondence.” Click on a title that interests you and you’ll be taken to a page with the full question and all the back and forth between Ask a Naturalist® and the questioner.

If you know the answer or have a suggestion or correction, please join in the conversation by simply adding your comment to the discussion.

If a question grabs your interest and you want to know the answer, but you don’t want to join in, you can follow the conversation by clicking on the link that says “You can also subscribe without commenting.” You’ll get an email update whenever there’s an addition to the conversation. You can drop out of the conversation any time you want. Just click on the “Manage my subscription” link in your update email.

If you have questions or concerns about this, please email Tom@askanaturalist.com. Thanks!
