Wildlife event encourages observational skills
"The idea is to get people looking at what's under their feet, hidden in bushes and trees - and up in the sky," said Ms Atkinson."We're surrounded by such fantastic countryside here in West Somerset, but it's sometimes easy not to notice the little things that are literally in front of our eyes," Ms Atkinson continued.
The project organisers are encouraging participants to use a wildlife identification app called iNaturalist to track wildlife. "The great thing about iNaturalist is that once you've uploaded your observations - and they've been verified - they get fed straight through to the Somerset Environmental Records Centre and the National Biodiversity Network Trust database," said Ms Atkinson.
She said that this means your observations become part of a national database, providing a baseline for the ten-year nature recovery plan.
