AfriBats' participation in the Global Snapshot of Biodiversity

Hello AfriBatters!

From May 15-25 is the Global Snapshot of Biodiversity for National Geographic's Great Nature Project, which means they're encouraging everyone to get outside during this time and share observations of biodiversity using iNaturalist. In the spirit of this event, we'd like to challenge everyone in two ways:

  1. Let's add 20 new observations during the period. The current total stands at 1450 observations, so the target by 25th May is 1470 observations.
  2. There are still quite a lot of species for which there is not a single observation on AfriBats, hence many of these species don't have a picture to illustrate the respective species pages. Let's target these species, some of which should be fairly easy to find.

We always welcome African bat observations from any time, but this is a great excuse for you to go outside now and document the bats in your neighbourhood.You know where they are, but AfriBats doesn't unless you share them! At the end of the Global Snapshot, we'll recognize the contributors and their observations.

Thanks for everything you contribute, we look forward to exciting new stuff!
