9 days until the launch of the City Nature Challenge!
Hello everyone! We are excited to be heading into our 3rd annual City Nature Challenge for the City of Surrey. This year the CNC will overlap with Party for the Planet and the launch of the Environmental Extravaganza!
New for this year will be the added competition from other cities, the most since we started participating in 2020. The Tri-cities (Port Moody, Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam), Delta, Richmond and other one-off events will be happening across Metro Vancouver. So far, we’ve held a spot nationally as one of the top five cities participating.
I know a lot of birders prefer to use eBird, thanks to some tech savvy connections through the CNC’s international organizers, participating cities we will be testing out a complementary platform called BioSmart to help compile observations from outside of iNaturalist. So we are going to see if bioSmart will be able to grab eBird data for us this year.
I am deeply grateful for all your efforts to conserve biodiversity locally, regionally, and beyond and am looking forward to seeing Surrey’s citizen science community shine at the CNC again this year!
Sincerely,
Pamela Zevit RPBio | Biodiversity Conservation Planner
