Participated yesterday in a #bioblitz to try to help get part of the nearby national forest designated a scenic wilderness area, which would protect it from logging. Tons of fun but boy am I tired and sore. #environment #activism #forest #solarpunk

Working this weekend on the City Nature Challenge, we happened upon this very fine male Purple Finch. Currently running second in number of species reported in the Montreal area.

#CityNatureChallenge #SouthFlorida is April 28 to May 7 this year!

Here are some events going on locally for it: https://www.cncsoflo.com/events-2

But you don't need to go to an event to participate. Just get an #iNaturalist account and start observing wildlife (photos and video/audio recordings).

#CNCSoFla is one of the participating metro areas so you'll be helping us all on the leaderboards!

Before the BioBlitz at Muriwai o Whata wetland, there were 62 observations of 45 species on #iNaturalistNZ. We're now up to 1,162 observations of 245 species, and climbing.

Thanks to #EnvironmentCanterbury for organising the great day.

If you're in mid-Canterbury and interested in nature and wetlands, note there's a public #BioBlitz happening on Saturday 18 February at Muriwai o Whata/Coopers Lagoon. That's on the coast between Te Waihora Lake Ellesmere and the mouth of the Rakaia River.

I'll be there, along with a bunch of other local naturalists and #iNaturalist fanatics, finding as many species as we can. It should be great fun. All are welcome.

Before #iNaturalist I only needed to pull the dandelions and mow the grass.

After iNaturalist I need to document everything first. And not mow over some of the wildflowers.

Note: The second Socially Distant #BioBlitz is May 3: https://www.inaturalist.org/posts/32948-next-socially-distant-bioblitz-may-3rd
