The City Nature Challenge is back! 🐛🐦🍄🌱

From 26 – 29 April, Wellington will compete against hundreds of other cities worldwide to log as many observations of nature as possible using the iNaturalist app.

We encourage everyone to get involved - all you need to do is download the app and go exploring. Plants, fish, insects, birds, fungi - they're all waiting to be discovered.

The City Nature Challenge is an incredible example of how citizen science can be used to document, study and protect our wildlife, and even discover new species!
