City Nature Challenge | night-time adventures
Come meet the scientists behind the iNaturalistNZ App and explore our night-time nature, recording what we find for the City Nature Challenge.
Did you know that many of New Zealand's most unique wildlife are nocturnal? Find out more at this evening exploration extravaganza, where scientists and experts converge on the Climate Action Campus to uncover what lives here. Bring your torch, warm clothes and a camp chair for hanging out.
Throughout the evening: Scientist Frank will supervise earthworm surveys, scientist Cor will wrangle spiders. Canterbury Museum's Morgane will set up a light trap to catch night flyers, Marine scientist Joyce will be showcasing her marine citizen science project - Whakaraupō fauna, Roamimg iNat experts will be on hand to help you upload and ID your observations. As well as Stich-a-mat will be running a make-a-bug workshop.
Our Council Libraries' outreach van will have lots of books and big games to play and there will be a coffee van and sausage sizzle to warm you up.
