Good Morning Fitzwilliam!
Good morning everyone! I hope everyone had some time to dry off yesterday and then had a great time at the moth lighting event last night, I was super bummed to miss it. It looks like we've got a bit of a reprieve from the rain until about 1:00 p.m. today so it should be a great morning to get outside and record some more of Fitzwilliam's awesome biodiversity. We added 78 observations yesterday, including what might be the first fish for the project. Fish are notoriously underrepresented on iNat inventories so if you know anyone out fishing today be sure to ask them to snap a few shots :)
As a reminder - yesterday we visited the rail trail behind Sip pond (http://tiny.cc/7j78vz), the rail trail by Rockwood pond ( http://tiny.cc/aj78vz) and the old ski hill (http://tiny.cc/cj78vz). Any of these places would be great to get out and continue exploring, and I would personally recommend getting out on the ski hill a bit today, if you get a chance. Both the meadow and the wood line there could benefit from more exploration and there is a LOT to look at. Wear your waterproof shoes though, I've never seen a steep hillside trying to be a wetland as much as that hill is!
As always, be safe, be aware, be respectful of people's property and take pictures of everything! There is no such thing as a 'boring species' when we're talking biodiversity.
We'll be monitoring and IDing across the day, I can't wait to see what you all find!
