The inaugural York City Nature Challenge 2024 starts at midnight tonight!
The inaugural York City Nature Challenge starts at midnight tonight! Are you ready to get out and make observations of WILD plants and animals using the iNaturalist app? You can make biodiversity observations as an individual or join one of the many events being hosted by various groups across greater York between 26-29th April. York is competing against ~700 cities worldwide and 23 other UK cities to have as much participation and observations of wildlife as possible over these 4 days!
Don’t forget that AFTER the City Nature Challenge there is the Identification Phase from 30 April - May 5, during which we need as many people who could help identify observations as close to species level as possible. Even if you aren't very knowledgeable about a particular species, helping us identify any 'Unknown' observations into groups like 'birds', 'flowering plants', 'butterfly', etc. is extremely useful! You can do this in your spare time, over a lunch break, or while hanging out in a garden by logging into the iNaturalist app on your phone or computer and "Suggesting IDs" for as many observations as you have time for. Helping with even just 1 observation (or 100!) is appreciated!
