City Nature Challenge: Birds and Bugs at Shelby Farms Park

Memphis needs you to help document our biodiversity! City Nature Challenge is a friendly international competition to see which cities can document the most wildlife in a single weekend. This year, you can help us put Memphis on the map. Join Overton Park Conservancy, Memphis Botanic Garden, T.O. Fuller State Park, Memphis River Parks Partnership, University of Memphis – Meeman Biological Station, and Wolf River Conservancy for a weekend of fun nature-focused events, or use iNaturalist to record wildlife observations on your own!

This event is part of a citywide weekend of opportunities to observe and record wildlife.
