How to use naturalist?

[Don't Touch That Pootis Bird]

I have several tiles that are blue and say " tile could be used, if some other plot is fixed". What does this mean?

No idea, in the base game when a Naturalist can be used a white 4 hex diamond appears.

A Naturalist needs

1) 4 hexes owned by the same city (only one shape allowed- a 'tall' diamond, 1-2-1 tiles from top to bottom).
2) none of them can be developed
3) the total has to have a high enough appeal (I don't know exactly how much)

Each tile must have at least 2 appeal. Mountains and natural wonders can be used (mountains have 4 and natural wonders have 5), though at least one of the spaces must be accessible for the Naturalist to make a park there.

I don't believe that has anything to do with a naturalist. Are you using any mods? If so, you might want to check their workshop pages; perhaps what you are seeing is part of a mod.

My guess would be that that mod is telling you that those tiles could be used to make a national park if some improvements on nearby tiles were removed.

Ah, I see. Could be that.
