Hi everyone,
Congratulations on an AWESOME first day of our City Nature Challenge! Nearly 60 people made observations yesterday, with over 280 species observed as of midnight. You all blew our expectations out of the water - thank you so much for your enthusiastic participation!
We are especially excited to see that people are making observations across both counties, including lots of great observations at the shore. Here are just of few of our favorite observations from yesterday:

GOALS FOR TODAY, 4/27:
Thank you again to everyone who contributed yesterday - we can't wait to see what today brings!
