Next we need to specify how we want the data to be displayed. We do this
using geom_ functions, which specify the type of geometry
we want, such as points, lines, or bars. We use geom_bar()
to create a vertical bar plot.

and iconic_taxon_name. Use mutate() and year()
to add a year column. We want count by both
year and iconic_taxon_name. We want the column
to be called obs_count.
