City Nature Challenge 2024

Join Council and the Friends of Damper Creek Conservation Reserve for a walk in the beautiful Damper Creek Conservation Reserve in Mount Waverley on Sunday 28 April, 10am-12 noon. We will be guided through the reserve by the group, where we will learn about the indigenous plants and animals while taking as many observations as we can through the iNaturalist App as part of the City Nature Challenge.

The City Nature Challenge is a worldwide initiative to gather observations of wild plants and animals. Monash Council has joined other councils in Melbourne to challenge other cities in the world for the most observations taken in the 4 days of the City Nature Challenge (April 26- April 29).

Please wear sturdy shoes and dress for the weather.

Download the iNaturalist App on your phone before you come, or bring your camera, take photos and upload onto the iNaturalist App on your desktop computer.
