Despite two days of Storm Hannah, it being our first year and a fairly laid back approach... the results are in..
And you did yourselves and the Liverpool City Region proud! Here are some of the stats from the 4 days;
The LCR 3 key stats are;
Observations: 12,326
Species: 1,075
Observers: 121
In the UK (total 7) this put us 2nd (Observations), 3rd (Taxon) and 5th (Engagement) – we were actually 2nd on species but the organisers included genus in the final count which put London ahead (boo!). On engagement we were 10 short of Newcastle and Manchester.
In “Europe & Central Asia” (total 26) we were 2nd (Observations), 4th (Taxon) and 8th (Engagement)
In the World (final participant total 159) 24th (obs), 41st (taxon) and 65th (engagement)
Other interesting stats;
An incredible thank you to all 121 of you that took part during the 4 days, you really did us proud and have given a massive boost to the wider Greenspace Challenge, helping to raise awareness of our local wildlife as well as adding to the vital information required to monitor and protect it into the future!
Don't forget it's not over! Continue exploring and adding your observations. We'll be continuing to use them to promote biodiversity and the value of Parks and Greenspace as well as monitor wildlife and plan for a better future for wildlife.
