Try a few easy ones first - Laburnum and Horse-chestnut miners, for example. I did that about a month ago, and I've already found mines on our apples which are either VC or Scottish firsts!
I bought the Macro and Micro fieldguides back in August, and barely opened them for a month! Essential.

I've raided some of my #fieldguide shelves for a little consultancy project this weekend. 📚 It's a good excuse to look at books covering different parts of the world together (plus a first proper dive into @jimlabisko.bsky.social's GORGEOUS new #Frog book 🐸)

One of the true gentlemen of the European butterfly world has migrated to where the skies are blue - the outrageously talented entomological artist Richard Lewington is here! Do give him a follow - his artwork graces all of our fieldguides, and our lives are immeasurably the richer for it.
I've joined Bluesky! Hoping to follow and be followed by many of my X/Twitter friends. Please Retweet/Repost or whatever the word is. #invertebrates #insects #moths #dragonflies #wildlife

They're alleged, by some fieldguides, to occur in Washington, too. I've been birdwatching here for decades and first saw a flock of them mining a big stump jam in the Columbia at Hood River.

A google search for critical botany results in nothing much, but I'm sure many of us know the term. It would not be a helpful approach to learning field botany, people will need illustrated fieldguides, going out with friendly groups, people learn in varied ways, but few jump in at the deep end.
