Description

This Nature Walk will take place on the Riverside Woods property off the 1st Line East of Mono. Before embarking on our walk, there will be a short instructional component on how to use the iNaturalist App to record your sightings of flora and fauna along the trail. Participants will also learn how to attach their observations to the Bruce Trail Project on iNaturalist. A short nature walk will follow where you will be encouraged to record 10 observations to iNaturalist. This session will start you on your way to earning the Caledon Hills BTC Citizen Scientist Badge. Members of all clubs are eligible to earn this badge. It would help if you downloaded the iNaturalist App and set up an account prior to joining this nature walk. If you are unable to do this, no worries, help will be available before embarking on the walk.
