Central Alberta May Species Count 2022

May 3, 2022 | 2:37 PM

We invite you to help us document animals and flowering plants in central Alberta! on May 28 and 29.

You can count in your own backyard, in a nearby park or natural area or even by driving the back-roads. We are interested in everything, from insects and spiders to amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.

Head on over to our website www.rdrn.ca, choose the drop-down menu Programs, Species Count, May Species Count to print off your tally sheets.

Also a map shows the different zones you can count in. You can view the individual zone maps as well. Let Judy know exactly where you are counting with an address or name of area to avoid duplication.

All living things are counted: flowers in bloom, mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, spiders, insects.
