Diario del proyecto UNCG Campus Nature Challenge

Hi Spartans,

We have a new challenge this fall, starting this coming Monday, the 24th until the 30th. Please join us over there for another chance to win prizes. We are giving away another bike, tent, hammock, and gift cards. Previous winners are not eligible to win again, but are nonetheless encouraged to still participate. We're also in a friendly competition with App State to get the most observations!

Thank you for participating in the first UNCG Campus Nature Challenge.

Please stay tuned for winners of the prizes. We will be spending this week looking through the photos and data collected to find the finalists.

On Wed, Apr 7, I changed the settings to allow "casual" observations because cultivated plants were otherwise excluded. You will note that this changed your number of observations.

Please continue to identify to your best ability. Also note if they are cultivated plants vs. wild.
