City Nature Challenge | Ask a UC expert, identify your finds

Do you need a little bit of extra help uploading your observations into the iNaturalist app? Want to take a closer look at what you and other citizen scientists have collected?

Drop into Te Ngaki o Waiutuutu Community Gardens, where experts will be on hand to answer any questions at set times. Microscopes will be set up to support looking at some of the tiny things collected and other tools will be available to help you get a good photo. 

Te Ngaki o Waiutuutu Community Gardens can be accessed by walking upstream on the path beside the stream - pick it up from Engineering Road. 

If you are keen to get together with other like-minded iNaturalists and put your own identification skills to the test, feel free to join us! 

City Nature Challenge is an annual bioblitz-style competition with cities around the world in a friendly contest to see who can make the most observations of nature.

You have until Monday May 10 to upload your photos into iNaturalist to make your observations count in the challenge final totals.
