Developed as an approach by community science staff in the US, the City Nature Challenge is:
… an international effort for people to find and document plants and wildlife in cities across the globe. It’s a bioblitz-style competition where cities are in a friendly contest with each other to see who can make the most observations of nature, who can find the most species, and who can engage the most people.”>City Nature Challenge is an international effort for people to find and document plants and wildlife in cities across the globe.

There are 2 parts to the challenge so why not use the Orchard and nature reserve to see what you can find:
April 28 – May 1 2023
Taking photos of wild plants and animals
May 2 – May 7, 2023
Identifying what was found
