During the City Nature Challenge BioBlitz I visited Centennial Woods, Intervale, and Potash Brook. I visited Centennial Woods on April 26 and April 27 to go bird watching and there was a lot of activity. unfortunately I wasn’t able to get picture of all the birds I saw but there were: two red cardinals that I saw and a lot of chickadees and a few pileated and hairy woodpeckers. I was able to get a picture an American Gold Finch. I went to Intervale for the Spectacular Nature Day event on April 28 and I found more woodpeckers and some plant species such as the ostrich fern. On April 29 I went to Potash Brook where I found a tiger beetle and some plants such as a yellow trout lily. I was able to identify the unknown plants I found using iNaturalist and I was able to upload most of my findings on this platform for the BioBlitz. my experience using the iNaturalist app went great and it was a great resource for identifying things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I encountered about 15 species and I was able to record about 12 of them. There were a few species that I was unable to identify. I looked through some other cities and their contributions and I found all of the different observations really cool. As I was looking through the cities I noticed how diverse all of the observations were I and thought it was interesting how in some cities, the spices found were very different than the ones we have in Vermont and some species were very similar. I looked at Maine and thought that all of the aquatic life was also really cool and different from what other areas have found. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
