And we are off
The GSB2022 is off and running with the first observations coming in.
For 2022 the honour of the first record goes to Stephen Thorpe (AKA @stephen_thorpe) from Auckland/Tāmaki-makau-rau
It looks like a Tortricine Leafroller Moth, in the Subfamily Tortricinae, Congratulations @stephen_thorpe and better luck next time @thebeachcomber
Its looking like a fantastic weekend of Nature observing so I hope you all find something new!

I'm inventing a time machine for next year's event so I can circumvent NZ's timezone advantage
If anyone could do it ...
@gsbadmin how can I add my observations please? I'm just outside the Greater Perth area in the shire of Gingin Western Australia.
hey @donna391, your observations are filtering into this project: https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/great-southern-bioblitz-2022-foris
Thankyou @thebeachcomber , I contacted Stephen Fricker and he suggested that one to me. It's a little lonely on there , I'm the only one.
Just North of the Equator is still counted as Southern hemisphere?
What's the cut-off date & time for posting observations taken during the Blitz period, please?
@bushboy 2 weeks from yesterday, up until midnight
@dianastuder we decided a while back that if a country was in the southern hemispheare then it counted (with the exception of places like France, in that case territories are ok
@thebeachcomber Thanks!
@gsbadmin most of the country is North of the Equator, which passes thru the Southern tip of the country.
Need a third Bioblitz for Equatorial countries.
