Day 2 Recap - We’re at the Halfway Mark!

Hey City Nature Challenge team! We’ve made it to the halfway mark of this years’ challenge, and folks across Utah’s Wasatch have already logged 2,863 nature observations - wow! Despite the rain, y’all have really shown up to document the incredible biodiversity our state has to offer.

Here are a few highlights from Day 2:

• A White-lined Sphinx shared by @bborgmannwinter
• This Great Horned Owl fledgling photographed by @irukandji
• And this incredible pollinator plant, Utah Milkvetch observed by @zacharyearl08

As the weather clears up over the next few days, we’re excited to see what nature emerges and what observations you’ll share!
