Goin on a nature hunt - join the City Nature Challenge Marianne Marugg Spring brings an exciting change of seasons, but it is even more welcome after the isolation of this last year and the severe winter weather we rarely see. Many folks are venturing out to enjoy the spring sunshine and may be looking for ways to spend time in nature with family.  The local Big Country Master Naturalist group is joining the City Nature Challenge in an international urban bioblitz, or search for wild plants and animals, in Abilene and its surrounding areas. City Nature Challenge began in 2016 with a friendly competition between teams from the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County and the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco. During the 2018 Challenge, more than 41,000 participants made 815,000 observations of living organisms. In 2021, groups from more than 350 cities worldwide, including Abilene, will participate.
