Webinar: City Nature Challenge 2021 How-to & What to Expect to See
When: Tuesday, April 27⋅8:00 p.m. ET | Who: EwA Initiative | Register for free here

We’re getting ready for the 2021 City Nature Challenge! Learn how to observe and record urban biodiversity and make it count!

Between April 30th and May 3rd, hundreds of cities worldwide will be celebrating Nature and gather observations of species found in our area with the help of all who want to participate in the worldwide 2021 City Nature Challenge (CNC). Such events are known as Bioblitz events.

Here we show how to 'iNat' (using the iNaturalist app in the field) and what you can observe in the Greater Boston area at this time of the year. You'll also learn how to protect species and habitats while you're documenting them.

Join us! It's fun and insightful. It's a great opportunity to connect with nature, deepen wildlife ethics, and help science while getting to learn about our communities and their biodiversity!

It was lovely to have who could make it tonight. Here are the slides that we presented [Slides].

Here is the set of iNaturalist observations that I had selected for you > CNC 2020 Featured observations.

Here's the EwA Wildlife Documentation Essentials (How to document plants & wildlife for identification)

If you want to find our EwA iNaturalist 'Mother' project ('the project of projects'), here it is > the EwA Biodiversity Projects.

And to finish, if you want to get involved in any of the EwA citizen science projects because we do so much more than iNating (e.g., insect surveys, phenology, biodiversity mapping, habitat assessments, bird monitoring, etc.) watch & read more > here.

Enjoy the City Nature Challenge, and see you all soon!
