Refuge Project Tops 1,000 observations!
On Monday, 7 December 2015 the FWNC&R iNaturalist project reached a milestone with its 1,000th recorded observation. The majority of the observations are "Research Grade" meaning that the species identification has been confirmed by at least 2 observers. This makes the data even more valuable as a management tool guiding natural resource management on the Refuge. Also valuable is that the observations document 459 different species meaning that the data is not simply a list of a small handful of species.
Thanks to the 49 naturalists who have reported their observations to the project. Let's keep it up!!
How about a goal of 2,000 observations by the end of 2016?

Woo hoo! :) It's looking great!
Also, you may want to toss up some flyer/poster or something at the nature center to tell folks about it and inaturalist. At Oliver Nature Park, we have a nice flyer with info about iNat and the project at the park -- several folks have joined that way.
Fantastic news! 2,000 observations, here we come!
