Otty Lake's Boletim

We passed 700 species identified in the project when Bruce posted a photo of Common Green Darner dragonfly we saw while we were out in the canoe. Several new folks have joined and they contributed to recording the timing of spring species. Many of the migrants have moved off but we are starting to see young of the year including ducklings and fawns. Let’s keep up the momentum documenting life on the lake as the summer season slowly begins.

Consider joining the iNaturalist community in documenting the biodiversity of Ontario by submitting observations on July 1st. A project has been created called “Canada 154 Bioblitz - Ontario” that will collect all observations from the province on Canada Day. So, by contributing sightings to the Otty Lake project on the holiday, you automatically will be adding to the province wide bioblitz. Last year they logged over 26,300 observations more than 4300 species!
