iNaturalist in Action: A hands-on demo at Raven Run Nature Sanctuary
April 1, 2022 @ 3:00 pm - 5:30 pm
Join staff of Raven Run and Floracliff nature sanctuaries for this hands-on demonstration using iNaturalist in the field at Raven Run. We’ll spend some time exploring, and we will cover the benefits of nature observations, basics of the app, and effective photos for species identification.
iNaturalist is a community science app and website used by professional and amateur naturalists around the world to document and learn about biodiversity. It’s not only an important tool for upcoming projects like the City Nature Challenge and the Kentucky Native Plant Society’s BotanyBlitz, but also a resource to learn about what is in your own yard or neighborhood. Anyone can contribute to and participate in iNaturalist by uploading observations of plants, animals, fungi, and more.
