Thanks to all, and those who attended our online event yesterday. It was a pleasure to have you with us at the '2020 Urban Quest How-to: The Fells' webinar.
The slides are publicly available (>
here), and if you click the various pointers in those slides you'll land on good content: wildlife documentation guides, field ethics, our projects, etc.
Speaking of which, have a peep at that channel: we have cool video snippets of our fieldwork from many locations in the world.
Here's a sample of some of the links I promised you:
- EwA Events Calendar on Eventbrite. In a Covid-19 world, we moved some of our events online. Check our webinars. Hopefully, we'll be able to resume our in-person events too! Speaking of the Fells, we have inspiring Forest Explorations events. We also have field training events for those who join our citizen science program.
- EwA Biodiversity & Climate Citizen Science Program. We have 4 study locations: The Fells, Somerville, Fresh Pond, and Mass Audubon Habitat, where we study phenology, insects, vernal pools, birds, habitats, invasives, and biological pollution (that Dog Poop Mapping project that we discussed at the end), etc. Feel free to join any of our ecological studies at any of our locations - just email us at citizenscience[at]earthwiseaware.org.
- EwA iNaturalist Projects:
- Here's our umbrella project 'EwA Biodiversity Projects' that lists all our collection projects.
- And of course, listed under that umbrella project above is the 'EwA at the Fells' iNat project (Today's examples were pulled from that project).
Join any project that you wish to join, and if you want to participate actively in one or more of them don't hesitate to contact us telling which one, and we'll add you as an active participant. In doing so, your observations will be pulled automatically and be part of our study data sets. Nothing to do other than uploading your observations under your account, once we have you as an active participant, we'll do the rest...
I think I covered it all. If I forgot something, don't hesitate to contact me.
Thanks again for your time today. Have fun this weekend iNating celebrating nature with us. I hope to see you soon at the Fells (or anywhere really)!
