Monday night: all done
Its midnight. We are done!
Thank you everyone for a magnificent achievement. Time for bed.
At this stage Australia has been done for 6 hours and South America still has 7 hours to play: we have -
10,587 of the 59.517 observations (18%)
1,539 of the 9,095 species (17%)
205 of the 2569 observers (8%)
We are top of the leaderboards in all, although the number of observers was a close call, and still is until Lima retires in 7 hours.
These numbers are provisional: the Americas are still active, and we all have a backlog of observations to upload and identifications to make.
Tuesday we can take a break. And then we need to finish our uploads and start the identification parties - these will be virtual of course. And with numbers one fifth that of the City Nature Challenge it should be quite easy.
I wont post any statistics yet: I will assume that by Thursday early almost all the observations will be uploaded, and that we have dented the identifications, and will do a short summary then.
Briefly though: (all targets are for species)
Targets exceeded: Botterblom (195%), Durbanville (132%), Uitkamp (102%);
Targets within 90%: Bothasig; Jack Miller,
Dipped again: Wolfgat & Arderne and Tokai Arboreta.
We have achieved (numbers of species): 144 birds, 24 mammals, 30 herps, 12 fish; 4,621 plants***, 35 fungi, 16 seaweeds, 125 insects, 18 arachnids, 69 molluscs & 10 crustaceans.
Once again, thank you everyone. And now for some well-earned sleep.

Yes, we only have 3500 species of plants in the city. And there are aliens. But what happened here is not for tonite ... later!
OK: it is official - we have a week for identifications and uploading.
from https://www.inaturalist.org/posts/41625-there-s-still-time-to-upload-and-id :
"But we're not done yet! Although the window for observing is over, you can still upload your photos. There will now be a 10 day window (so up until midnight of Thursday the 8th of October) to allow everyone to upload any photos they have left from the 4 days. Also importantly, these 10 days will be valuable for identifying your observations, so get out your field guides and start IDing! If you've managed to ID all of your own observations, have a look through some of the other amazing observations in the project and see if you can help others out."
So DEADLINE: 8 October.
