I am now officially an iNaturalist ambassador 👨‍🌾🕵️‍♂️🪿🍄🐝🌻

My first project is organizing a BioBlitz (people come together at a place and identify all the living beings they can find) for the marsh near my apartment.

It's happening on April 25th to coincide with the City Nature Challenge.

It will be co-lead with Ryan Bartlett, a local native bee expert, who'll be bringing fun gear to safely catch insects and ID them.

Our findings will lay the groundwork for more intentional stewardship of that land.

Might this be useful to help build a case for it?

Fediverse: An overview for community organizers

What is the fediverse Fediverse is a grassroot effort to empower people to connect online without Big Tech CEOs controlling what they can post and venture capital companies pouring in money and hoping for a big payout one day at the price of enshittification.
