BC Parks iNat project is back May 14th!
...aaannnnddddd we're back! BC Parks will be opening up again as of May 14th (see here for more details: http://bcparks.ca/covid-19/ ): we're all excited to get back out there, and what a great time of year to be heading back into provincial parks and protected areas!
What do you want to see in BC Parks this summer? New birds? Beautiful new plants and insects? Unusual mosses, lichens, and fungi? Who knows what you'll see, and record, using iNaturalist to survey biodiversity across the province. We're learning so much about what species are found where, and there are so many wonderful photos.
It's going to be a big summer for observing nature in BC Parks. Can we get past 225,000 observations? What about to 8,000 species? Can we get 50 protected areas up to more than 1,000 observations each?
Have fun out there, and be safe and healthy.
