THANK YOU for all the amazing observations across Davidson County. It's been great to get a peak into what diversity we see around the city!

You can keep observing from now until April 18th. Check out the national leaderboard to see how Nashville is doing: https://nhm.org/nature/citizen-science/city-nature-challenge-2017-leaderboard

We also need all the help we can get IDENTIFYING the observations. Take a look and help us get as many species-level identifications as possible. Remember that species-level verified observations are added to the Global Biodiversity Information Facility.
