final results for June Biodiversity Challenge bioblitz

The results for the June bioblitz are now in. From June 9 - 12, we had a total of 2303 observations, of 750 species, by 304 different observers. That's pretty awesome considering this bioblitz was set up at the last minute with very little publicity.
We were in a friendly competition with 71 other municipalities from Wyoming to Alaska; for that we compared observations and observers per capita as of June 19, so our numbers at that time were 1781 observations (0.00242 observations per AK resident) by 266 observers (0.000361 participants per AK resident). Quite a few AK observations were posted after that June 19 deadline; they're still part of the bioblitz results, just not part of the competition.
Congratulations to Bear Lake County, ID who win the observations contest with 344 observations (0.0540 obs/resident); and Clark county, ID with a whopping 3 participants but with a tiny population of only 827 residents, they're the winners of the participation contest with 0.00362 participants per resident.
Alaska had two "Super iNatters" - people who racked up 200+ observations, and/or 100+ species. Congratulations to @radinis with 231 observations and 94 species (technically they were submitted after June 19, too late for the regional contest but still in our unofficial totals), and @paul_norwood with 202 observations and 131 species.
We set up this project as part of a series of summer bioblitzes, across western Canada and northwestern USA. We hope to run spring, summer and fall bioblitzes every year, so hopefully we can do a little publicity before the next one, scheduled for Sept. 15-18, 2022.
If you're interested in coordinating this or another bioblitz in western Canada, get in touch with me.
