City Nature Challenge 2021
What is City Nature Challenge?
City Nature Challenge is a yearly citizen science event to see which urban area in the world can turn out the greatest number of naturalists, make the most observations of nature, and find the most species using the iNaturalist platform. Anyone can participate on Mt. Tam and close to home by making observation of WILD organisms April 30-May3 and then uploading and identifying observations May 4-May 9.
