Take part in the 2019 City Nature Challenge by joining us for a nature walk with a high-tech twist. We will be learning about the citizen science project iNaturalist, an online community where you can identify the living things that surround us every day. Following a brief tutorial, we will head outside to look for and identify plants, bugs and other wildlife on the Varina Library's nature trail. A limited number of tablets will be on hand for folks to use. Those who would prefer are encouraged to download and install iNaturalist on their smartphone or tablet. All ages are welcome and there will be a craft for children. Children are required to have adult supervision.
