University of Otago Botany Summer School returns

About 30 students and tutors headed out to explore one of the less-frequented parts of the Town Belt in search of interesting observations. The group split into three to focus on different habitats. While some concentrated on native species others showed an interest in garden-escapes and other weeds. Students learnt to use the iNaturalist app and best practice for making excellent observations. Back in the lab all observations were reviewed and shared as a group. Students were impressed with how quickly some observations were confirmed by the NatureWatch community. Let's hope more observations keep flooding in!
