Details:
A twist on a birding “big day,” today we’ll document as many species as we can find (not just birds!) Throughout the day, explore your own park or neighborhood to see how many living things you can find – that includes plants, mammals, fungi, insects, birds, lichens, and more!
Let’s see how many species we can notice in one day – share pictures, videos, or nature journal entries about the species you notice on The Big Day to support our work. For every observation shared, Brandon Everhart, The Bearded Realtor, will donate a dollar to support Tremont’s environmental education programs (up to $1,000 – a huge Big Day goal!)
Choose one of these methods to share your discoveries with Tremont:
Post your observation to our Big Day Facebook event
Email your observation to tremont@gsmit.org
Are you playing along with the Level Up Challenge? Every observation you add to iNaturalist earns one point, and you’ll contribute to community science! Learn more about iNaturalist.
This event is part of our Virtual Naturalist Week. Everyone is invited to participate from wherever they are.
