The Countdown is ON!

It's hard to believe with this winter weather, but the City Nature Challenge is only 8 days away! Check out our Boston Area CNC website with a calendar of dozens of events happening throughout the area. You can join an organized event or make observations on your own with friends and family.

Even with some cold days, spring is progressing - the migratory birds are chirping, insects are flying, and amphibians have returned to vernal pools. Green is popping back up all over the New England landscape! This week is a great time to practice making observations. If you are new to iNaturalist, check out the site's excellent resources about how to taking good photos with your smart phone, uploading observations, and making identifications on the Getting Started page.

We will continue updating the calendar with events. Feel free to add your comments or questions below if you are planning a meetup in your area.

With your help, we can discover more about our local biodiversity, contribute observations to research, and win this thing!!
