It's time! The Challenge is now through Monday, 5/1. Charlottesville Region

Help us win City Nature Challenge.

It's raining (a lot!), but we hope you'll get outside between the drops and make wildlife observations so we can top last year's Challenge numbers in the Charlottesville Region (Albemarle, Nelson, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, Orange and City of Charlottesville).

Snap a photo in iNat of that worm on the sidewalk (it counts!) or that dandelion in your yard (it counts!) or the fly in your vehicle (it counts!).

Observations are slowly rolling in already and we hope to top last year's challenge numbers. Will you spread the word and help us?
• top 2,081 wildlife observations
• top 688 species
• top 234 people making observations

All iNaturalist observations from the Charlottesville Region will automatically be counted in the Challenge. Results will be finalized on Monday, May 8 so be sure to upload all your observations by then. For more information and for a list of in-person events happening in the Charlottesville area during the challenge, please visit our website https://www.nature.org/en-us/get-involved/how-to-help/events/virginia-city-nature-challenge/
