City Nature Challenge - Day 2 and time for pizza!
We’ve hit the halfway mark for the City Nature Challenge! Some of the top cities globally are pulling in amazing numbers of observations, but we are still doing fantastic - especially considering how small a city we are! We kept up the pace today, and are now on 5409 observations of 1087 species from 155 people. (At midnight last night were were on 2557 observations, 709 species and 95 people.)
About 120 of the cities who signed up have at least a few observations on the board now, and as of midnight we’re sitting at 10th place for observations (right behind Los Angeles!), 7th place for species, and 21st for number of participants. (We have fewer observers, but obviously our observers are super hard-working and efficient!) You can check out the leaderboard at the City Nature Challenge website.
Keen to give us an extra boost? Pull a friend into the competition! We still have two days to go, so there’s plenty of time for new participants to make their mark.
Since you’ve all been working so hard, we’d like to invite you to a participant get-together tonight (Sunday, 27 April). We’ll get some pizzas and fizzy drinks and enjoy some downtime with fellow city nature-finders.
Where: WEA - 59 Gloucester Street
When: 5:30 PM
Please leave a comment by 2PM if you will be coming, so we know how much pizza and fizzy/juice to get (sorry, no alcohol at the WEA). Please also let me know if you would prefer veggie pizza. (You can go to https://inaturalist.nz/projects/city-nature-challenge-2019-christchurch/journal to leave a comment if you’re seeing this in an email. If you’re also a trip leader who has received a direct email from Laura, you only need to respond one way or the other.)
Fantastic work everyone!
