At the March chapter meeting we learned about a friendly, exciting competition.

The City Nature Challenge

is coming to Volusia County. If you already use iNaturalist, you are ready to participate. The goal is to accumulate as many observations of natural, living organisms. The next goal is to get the most people engaged. Finally, the last goal is to see what metropolitan area can identify the most species. It's a celebration of biodiversity the plays like a game. So go out with your smart phone equipped with iNaturalist or your digital camera camera and start snapping away. For more info, check these links:
