iNaturalist Meetups
August 1 — Trees
While City Nature Challenge 2026 is in the books, our noticing nature doesn’t have to end there. We heard that participants wanted to iNat throughout the year. Starting in August, we’re hosting monthly themed meetups at public parks and green spaces across our 12-county region. This is your chance to join other naturalists in the field.
Each meetup centers on a specific theme, so we can practice making stronger observations, better photos, better identifications, and more useful data for our region. In August, we start with trees. Join us at Phil Hardberger Park (Blanco Road side) on Saturday, August 1, from 9 to 11am, led by Robert Doyal and Jane Weeden, to walk the park’s trails and observe and document the trees we find. We’ll start with the latest iNat news, then spend about an hour in the field, and wrap up by working through identifications together.
Wear comfortable shoes and bring water, a hat, and sunscreen.
These iNat meetups are open to anyone, no iNaturalist experience needed.
We’re rooting for a good turnout!
