City Nature Challenge 2020

Greetings,
I want to let you know that this year Boise Parks and Recreation, Golden Eagle Audubon Society and Idaho Fish and Game are collaborating to include Boise in the global City Nature Challenge http://citynaturechallenge.org/. The collection portion of the challenge will take place from April 24th – 27th, with the window to identify observations running April 28th – May 3rd. Over 200 cities from across the globe are expected to participate in this year’s challenge. I have tagged you in this post because you’re a top observer in the Boise area. We would love to have you participate in this year’s challenge and help us document as many species as possible.

All observations made in the Boise or Garden City area during the data collection window will be included in the challenge totals. Please spread the word to iNaturalist users you know in the Boise area about this event. The Boise Area project page is located at https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/city-nature-challenge-2020-boise-area. The map on the page outlines the data collection boundary.
Boise Parks and Recreation along with other organizations will be hosting bioblitz events in parks and open spaces across the Boise area during the event. Please check the project page periodically for updates about scheduled events.
We are so excited to see what we can find from the foothills to the Boise River and beyond! Please feel free to contact me with questions or suggestions.
