DESCRIPTION:Calling all self-proclaimed naturalists! If you are a mushroom 
 hunter\, fisherman\, birder\, or just like walking the trails and discoveri
 ng the diversity of our parks\, we need YOU! To help us learn about the div
 ersity of organisms in our park\, we are competing with other parks in a st
 ate-wide Bio Blitz competition!\n \n\nTo participate\, download the iNatura
 list app on your phone\, create an account\, and start uploading observatio
 ns found in your favorite parks! iNaturalist is a free citizen science proj
 ect application that allows users to locate and identify organisms anywhere
  in the world! You don't have to be an expert to join\, simply take photos 
 of organisms in the parks you visit (or your own backyard) and upload them 
 to iNaturalist - all of which is done in the app itself. It's very user fri
 endly and can help scientists discover new populations of organisms and tra
 ck those that may be declining. It really is an awesome tool for research!\
 n \n\nTo get started\, visit https://www.inaturalist.org/home and create yo
 ur account. Then\, simply visit our park in June and upload sightings withi
 n the park! They will automatically be submitted as part of the Bio Blitz. 
 The more sightings\, the more chances our park will win\, so record everyth
 ing!\n\n \n\nRules for submissions are as follows:\n\nRecordings of birds a
 nd frogs are acceptable\, as long as they are clear enough to recognize. Yo
 u can upload merlin recordings as well through a PC.Trail camera photos are
  accepted and encouraged for nocturnal life. Time and date stamps should be
  visible. Honors system on this one!Plants must be WILD in your park. We wi
 ll not accept garden grown plants/trees this year. It’s too easy to stand i
 n a butterfly garden and grab dozens of species without moving. They need t
 o be growing wild\, whether they are native or invasive. This goes for nati
 ves in butterfly gardens as well. I would like to know where these species 
 are growing wild\, not where they’ve been planted. If you’re not certain\, 
 you can include it\, but make note of its uncertain origin.No dead animals.
  Let’s not include roadkill\, and absolutely no taxidermy.No pets or “escap
 ees”. The bobwhite running around your park is not wild\, and neither is th
 e loose dog.A few key things to remember:\n\nIt is illegal to pick wildflow
 ers in state parks/forests. Take photos\, but don't damage plants!\n\nAnyon
 e fishing or picking up reptiles or amphibians must have a valid fishing li
 cense. Please avoid handling these animals if at all possible\, and make su
 re you have your license if you plan to go "herping" or fishing.
