Groups are collections of Daily Kos users who have come together to speak as a collective voice. Groups can be organized around a specific topic, or simply be people who like to collaborate. Groups can include diaries that are written by the group, or diaries that group members have found and want to highlight.
Finding a group blog that covers a topic you follow can be a great way to read diaries that you might otherwise miss. This page will allow you to find groups that have been called out as useful within the community. Following a group will help other people find it here.

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.

Long live all the pooties, and the woozles, and the birdheds, and their people too.
