Eyes on Slocan Lake 2014

Like to watch wildlife around Slocan Lake? Got a smart phone or digital camera and enjoy photographing nature? If so, please join SLSS’s new project called Eyes on Slocan Lake.

It’s a biodiversity mapping project developed by the SLSS in partnership with the Selkirk Geospatial Research Centre (SGRC), with support from the Columbia Basin Watershed Network (CBWN). It aims to capture the nature’s richness in the Slocan Lake Watershed using the iNaturalist app. Check out more about Eyes on Slocan Lake here.
