Get Nerdy with Nature

City Nature Challenge is an annual community science competition for cities across the globe to find and document the plants and wildlife found in urban areas. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 challenge is all about collaboration, not competition. It is an opportunity for participants to connect with other cities across the nation—and the globe—while exploring the nature found in and around their homes.

The 2021 challenge will take place in two parts: from April 30 to May 3, 2021, community scientists will observe wildlife and take photos of all the plants and animals they can find. From April 30 to May 9, 2021, the species documented will be identified. On May 10, 2021, the results will be announced!
