City Nature Challenge 2024

Thanks to everyone who came to our wildlife recording walk around the Welsh Harp Environmental Education Centre! Despite the rainy outlook, it was great to see so many enthusiastic faces :-). Special thanks to Simon Braidman for his invaluable naturalist-y presence, & to Gillan Barnard and Suzanne Morpurgo for pulling everyone together.

Do keep track of the UK City Nature Challenge leaderboard:

At the time of writing, London is only 5th! We have about 30 hours to change that :0

See you at the next event,
Elizabeth

P.S. When uploading your images iNaturalist, please try to follow these guidelines:

1) Only wildlife - no pets, livestock, crops or garden plants (unless they got there without human help)

2) Only identify records if you are fairly confident in their ID! Otherwise use a wider taxa: e.g. If I am not sure if a snail is a white-lipped snail, I could put it as "snail" or "gastropoda".

3) Only upload records that others have not already uploaded! This is a tricky one for today, I will try to comment on duplicates.
