WXXI Nature Challenge

Join WXXI and our partners as we explore nature in our region! 

Take part in WXXI's Nature Challenge!

Participation is easy, free, and open to anyone in the Greater Rochester and Finger Lakes region. Help us see all the different living things in our community and get excited about being citizen scientists. 

Here's how to take part:

1. Download the free iNaturalist app onto your device.
2. Find wildlife - any plant, animal, tracks, bug, etc. 
3. Take a photo of whatever you find (and remember where you found it!).
4. Upload your picture to the iNaturalist app and choose the project: WXXI Nature Challenge.

Get outside, explore, and participate as many times as you'd like throughout the month of April (4/1-4/30/19). 

  Download the FREE iNaturalist app, which works on all devices - Android version and Apple version. Need help learning how to use iNaturalist? Check out some of the video tutorials. Teachers: there's even an iNaturalist educator guide to help with use in your classroom instruction!
