Keep an eye on these links below for any documentations that are a first for the Chicago metro region on iNaturalist in 2021. These aren't necessarily totally newly documented for the region, just the first time they've been added to iNaturalist for the region (still cool!).
You'll often find species on here that are the result of computer vision errors as well as observations that should be marked captive/cultivated. Fixing these helps sort the wheat from the chaff and keeps range maps representative of wild organisms.
I've excluded casual observations here. Everything is split up into observose natural groups and then divided further when those groups have more than 500 taxa in the search results, due to the limitations of iNat's Compare tool.

But...check back on these links later as new identifications come in.

Zebra Finch may be gray area on iNat, but no birder thinks it is anything but an escapee

@loarie started a discussion about how iNat should handle observations like these here https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/options-for-the-best-way-to-handle-non-established-obs-e-g-escaped-released-pets/16684
