Changes

Hello Micro Forest observers!

I'm thrilled by the activity we've been witnessing at the Micro Forest in just three months time. There have been lots of great sightings (mostly of insects!) that we've observed recently.

In order to stay in keeping with the purpose of this iNat project, I made a slight change to the format. It seems that many incredible observations were being added to the project that did not fall within the footprint of the forest, so I converted the project from a "Traditonal Project" to a "Collection Project." This means that any observations that are made in the footprint of the forest and immediate vicinity will be automatically added to the project, and all the other incredible wildlife sightings occuring in the other parts of Bette Davis Park or the river will not. I did my best to approximate the boundaries of the forest, but a few observations that occured outside the fence still managed to get included. That said, it is still much more accurate than it was before.

Thank you all for your observations thus far, and I look forward to capturing more sightings of insects, lizards, and birds with you all as the forest grows!
