Intro to iNaturalist ♿

Learn how to create and contribute observations for the global scientific community by using iNaturalist. In this workshop, we'll explore both the website and smartphone app of iNaturalist —a community-based education and science organization for those curious about nature, interested in improving their familiarity of local organisms and sharpening their identification skills. Part of this class will be inside and part outside on the grounds. Photography is an important element when creating these natural observations. Receive first-hand practice as we walk through RSPP and learn how to take clear, concise photographs that optimize your subject. This class will also briefly cover SEEK, an app that uses the iNaturalist database but does not require you to make an account. Cost: $4. Parking: $6 per vehicle.
