| Backyard Bird Racers The Daily Kos Backyard Science Yardbird Race is a birding competition where, over the course of one year, participants strive to identify the most bird species - by sight and/or by sound - from the confines of their yards. Everyone who is participating in the race will be an editor of the group, which will be a place for announcements about tallies, as well as a place where everyone can access the information that we've all gathered over the year. |

| Backyard Science Phenology is a science that anyone can practice without a lab coat, microscope, or PhD. It's the study of seasonal events such as first flowers, appearance of certain butterflies, etc. People have tracked these dates for decades -- even centuries -- and now there's a place on DK to record your own observations. A casual spot to tell what you're seeing in the park down the road or in your own back yard. |

| Itzl Alert Network
The weather is brutal. If it's not murderously hot, it's freezing cold, or flooding. There are tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, blizzards. Power goes out, and suddenly you're cut off. Beyond that, some of us have disabilities or illnesses that we're dealing with alone. It would be nice to know someone has our back. The Itzl Alert Network is a community where we can meet potential buddies in our geographic areas to check in on us if we aren't reporting in here, to make sure we're OK, and if s... |

| Kitchen Table Kibitzing
Kitchen Table Kibitzing is a community series for those who wish to share a virtual kitchen table with other readers of Daily Kos who aren't throwing pies at one another. Drop by to talk about music, your weather, your garden, or what you cooked for supper.... Newcomers may notice that many who post in this series already know one another to some degree, but we welcome guests at our kitchen table and hope to make some new friends as well. Our kitchen opens nightly at 5:30PT/8:30ET.

| PWB Peeps This is the group for the pooties, woozles, and birdies people and if you don't like them and don't see the purpose of us being here, please, do not bother us. Just remember what Nurse Kelley and Kos said - "Don't f**k with the pootie people." Started by the Pootie Queen triciawyse, who sadly left us too soon, now run by the Pootie Princess: The Marti. Long live all the pooties, and the woozles, and the birdheds, and their people too. |

| The Grieving Room
The Grieving Room is a Monday evening series for those who are experiencing grief or loss. And diaries of those going through the loss of a person or pet, whether recent or long ago. Or yet to happen. And those that come to console because they too have gone through the fire. A safe space.
