Less than 2 weeks to the 2024 City Nature Challenge!
The 2024 City Nature Challenge promises to be the biggest yet with 691 cities in 51 countries on all seven continents participating! It is so big this year that two umbrella projects are needed to hold all the projects for the participating cities.
- City Nature Challenge 2024 North and South America
- City Nature Challenge 2024 Eurasia, Africa and Oceania
The Canadian Wildlife Federation is hosting some online workshops to help you get into the swing of things. Their tips will offer invaluable insights and practical tips to make your CNC experience a resounding success. Watch for journal posts here to give a local spin on their pointers.

Observing with iNaturalist around wetland habitatFriday, April 19, 2024 12-12:30 p.m. ETBoth Oak Hammock Marsh and Fort Whyte Alive! are bursting at the seams with migrating waterfowl. The skunks are awake and the coyotes can be heard singing at night. A gentle reminder that the Harry Enns building at Oak Hammock is still closed while renovations are proceeding. Trails are still open as are the pit toilets at the South Mound. |
