Thank you so much for getting involved...but it's not over yet! :)

Dear All,

Wow! What a journey!

Firstly, a MASSIVE thank you to all of you that incorporated the CNC into your normal activities, made specific activities and promoted amongst your students, family, friends, clients and colleagues. Your efforts are truly appreciated.

We didn’t quite make all our targets but we certainly smashed our previous records.
As of 3:30pm, 30/4, it was as follows:

Observations: 25,963. (2018: 20,268. 8th/68 cities)
Species Logged: 3,111. (2018: 2932. 4th/68 cities)
Observers: 1,086. (2018: 755. 7th/68 cities)

But it’s not over yet!

If you still have pictures taken from April 26-29th, either on your smartphone or on your camera, you can still upload them to this project and they will still count in our totals, every little helps!

Also, there's still a chance that more species will be uncovered, so for all of you enthusiasts and ecologists out there, we could still do with your help in offering identifications to these observations. The links to mini-projects that contributed to the main project are at the bottom of this message.

We have until 9am, Monday 6th May (HKT).
This is the deadline for uploads and identifications and when results will be finalised.

Identification Party:

There’s still plenty of places at our ID Party to further identify CNC-HK observations on iNaturalist and engage with participants online.

Date: Thursday 2nd May, 2019
Time: Anytime between 10am - 6pm
Venue: WWF – Central Visitor Centre. 1 Tramway Path, Central.
Registration: https://forms.gle/vhj5QGB8769Wyunt7
Refreshments: Food and Drinks provided.

I have budget to compensate you for your time during this session plus I'll have some food and drink to keep us going. Should be fun! In the registration link, please let me know when you may come and how long you can stay for. Please remember to bring your laptops!

Photos & Videos:

Thanks for all of the videos and photos that some of you have sent me so far.

If you have any photos/videos that you have of your activities, please send them to me (perhaps through a link on Google Drive?). I have an idea to create marketing materials for next year’s event and/or organise a follow-up event that celebrates Hong Kong's CNC involvement, perhaps a gallery of some of the pictures taken on iNaturalist and pictures of participants in action. I will, of course, keep you all updated in this regard and credit appropriately.

Once again, thank you so much for getting involved.
Will speak soon.

Cheers!
Shaun
