New Zealand - Global Snapshot of Biodiversity 2015
That's a wrap
Great effort, everyone! There was a surge of activity over the last weekend of the Great Nature project, taking us to our current contribution of 1419 observations and 711 species added by 81 NatureWatch NZ users. That's close to 10% of the 7427 species currently uploaded globally, which we reckon is a decent effort by the Kiwis.
If you've still got other photos you took during the week of 15–25 May, you've got a couple of days to upload them for them to be included in National Geographic's official global tally.
We'll highlight some of the most important observations over the next few days.
After this year's online effort, we're inspired to think big. Next year, with a little sponsorship, we could organise a nature watching event in every major centre across NZ.
