SUMMARY:iNaturalist City Nature Challenge 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join the iNaturalist Project here! \n\n\n\nMark your calendars! From April 24–27\, 2026\, San Antonio will join cities around the globe in a wild celebration of biodiversity\, curiosity\, and community science. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCity Nature Challenge is a fun\, competitive way to see which city can make the most observations of local flora and fauna during the City Nature Challenge\, April 24-27\, 2026. \n\n\n\nThe City Nature Challenge began in 2016 as a friendly rivalry between San Francisco and Los Angeles. That first year\, LA took the win with 10\,352 observations\, 1\,601 species\, and 574 participants. Since then\, the challenge has blossomed into a global movement — with cities from every continent documenting the wild life that lives alongside us. \n\n\n\n🌼 Why It Matters \n\n\n\nEvery observation helps scientists understand and protect our ecosystems. It’s also a chance to slow down\, reconnect\, and remember that we are part of nature — not separate from it. \n\n\n\nLet’s show the world what San Antonio’s wild heart looks like. Let’s walk gently\, notice deeply\, and upload with joy. \n\n\n\nJoin the iNaturalist Project here!

SUMMARY:Prosper Prairie Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join the NPSOT-Collin County Chapter for a chapter-led native plant walk through the prairie at the Raymond Community Park in Prosper on Thursday\, April 30\, 2026\, at 6:45 PM. The walk will be led by Melanie Schuchart. Plan on about one hour\, though participants are welcome to leave earlier if needed. \n\n\n\nMeeting location: The park address is 2101 E. First St. in Prosper. It is north of First Street on Coit Road. Traveling north on Coit Road\, turn left onto the gravel road leading into the gravel parking lot. There is construction on Coit Road in the area\, so allow extra time getting there. \n\n\n\nNote: This prairie is also in a period of change. The park is under development\, sidewalks have been added\, and parts of the prairie have been disturbed\, making this a good opportunity to observe both the blooms and how the prairie responds over time. \n\n\n\nWhat to wear and bring: Long pants\, closed-toe shoes\, sunscreen\, and insect repellent are recommended. You may also want to bring a camera\, binoculars\, and a wildflower guide.
