flowers. Learn how to document your findings on the citizen science app, iNaturalist, and how to join app-based local and worldwide biodiversity projects. We will also talk about the Parks Department butterfly monitoring initiative, and you will receive an identification handout to help with your own observations. We will make a 1.3-mile loop on Black Rock Trail, which is mostly smooth and level. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring snacks and plenty of water. Bring a fully charged phone or tablet to photograph your observations. If you would like to learn how to document via iNaturalist, please download the free app at home and register with a username prior to arrival. Restrooms and water are available at the Area 4 parking lot.
