City Nature Challenge: April 30-May 3, 2021

During April 30-May 3, 2021, all observations made anywhere in the DC metropolitan area will count for the 2021 City Nature Challenge. This is an exciting time to encourage your friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues to find and document biodiversity in our region as part of a friendly, international competition.

Dozens of organizations across the metro area are involved in spreading the word to encourage people to get outside and record wild biodiversity for the City Nature Challenge. There's room for plenty more! This is a big tent of nature enthusiasts.

If you want to stay in the loop about planning in our region, please:

1. Join this project
2. Join the Google Group that we use for meetings and regular communication

We'll have a call for returning organizers on Friday, January 22 and another for new organizers on Friday, January 29. All planning calls this year will be on Fridays at 11 am. Join the Google Group to be sure you get those details.

You can take a look at the results from our region in 2020. We're especially interested to involve people and organizations that can help fill the gaps in the map, as well as experts who can help identify the abundance of observations that come in.

Some of the newest prolific contributors from the region who joined since last year's City Nature Challenge may be interested in getting involved this year. Hope you'll join us! If so, please join the Google Group! (If not, no problem, please ignore!)
