Diario del proyecto City Nature Challenge 2024: West Michigan

Hello all!

Last night at our meeting, one of the things we talked about was creating a species checklist to allow people to prioritize different locations within our City Nature Challenge. The link below will take you to a Google Sheet that you all should be able to populate with different species, as well as columns for who first observed them and the date on which they were observed. In addition to trying to collect as many total observations as possible, we want to try and observe as many different species as possible!

Hello again!

In addition to a species checklist, one of the resources that folks thought would be useful is a list of events happening that weekend that are tied to the City Nature Challenge. I am endeavoring to put together and frequently update both a list of events in Google Sheets, and a map of events separated out by day using Google Maps.

If you are interested in leading a nature walk, or some other event that you feel comfortable facilitating, feel free to add it to the Google Sheet and I will get it added to the Google Map so that people can see where things are happening. Similar to the species list, you will probably need to request access to the events list in order to edit it.
