You may have noticed on our walks we look at birds, but we can also become distracted by interesting flowers, insects, trees, etc. iNaturalist is a great way to not only identify these distractions but it, like eBird, is a citizen science tool. Rob VanEpps, local birder extraordinaire, will share with us how he expanded his expertise into a wider variety of flora and fauna. He will show us the basics of how to use the iNaturalist app as well as how the website can be used to learn more about the natural environment around us. He recommends that you download the app before the meeting, if you don’t have it already because this will be a hands-on, participatory activity.​
