The results are in!
A big thank you to everyone who participated and helped make our third time a grand success. Philly's official numbers at cut-off were:
Observations: 19,637
Species: 2,219
Observers: 966
While not officially a competition this year, those numbers put us at 11th in observations, 12th in species, and 11th in observers out of 419 participating species. Well done, Philly!
And despite not being a competition, we take a little bit of pride in that we beat NYC in all 3 categories. Though DC smoked us this year with 43k observations, nearly 3k species and 1961 participants. We'll get them next year!
Globally, Cape Town was ridiculously phenomenal as usual leading in both observations (71k+) and species (4766) while San Francisco came in first in observers (2265). Across all cities participating, the global CNC had the following amazing numbers with over 1 million observations made in 4 days:
Observations: 1,270,767
Species: 45,300+, including more than 2,100 rare/endangered/threatened species
Observers: 52,777
Thanks to every one of the 966 people who added observations in the Greater Philadelphia Area. And to the 726 identifiers, thank you! A special shoutout to our top:
Observers: @srall , @conboy, @annebekker, @seahound, @ginsengandsoon, @that_hippie_chick, @danefroymson, @mevets, @brittany101
Species: @annebekker, @conboy, @ginsengandsoon, @danefroymson, @mevets, @that_hippie_chick, @seahound, @mark_fallon, @srall

And an extra special shoutout to @srall for participating with both Philly and NYC this year and being second in both places! And to @annebekker for being the first person in our 3 year history to cross 400 species in our region during the CNC.
Here's a cool graphic made by the global CNC organizers highlighting the global competition. CNC 2021 Infographic
I'll try to make a similar one for our region soon, so please let me know if you found anything cool either while observing or IDing.
Well done and congratulations all!

Well done, everyone!
And though he's too modest to include himself in the top 10 lists he posted, our organizer @navin_sasikumar was first in Greater Philly in observations and second in species. And that on top of all the work he does organizing the event. Thank you!
Came here to point out that our organizer and most prolific contributor left himself off this list, but bugsandbirds beat me to it. Great job @navin_sasikumar and everyone! It was fun!
Thank you, @bugsandbirds and @annebekker. You are too kind.
