Day 3

Coming to the end of Day 3 and we are still holding our own!

Quick summary at 9 pm:

• 1500 observations
• 722 species
• 45 observers

This gets us up into 4th position overall, out of the total 145 regions that are participating!! We are also in 3rd place for the number of unique species, showing off that Coffs and Bellingen diversity!

A couple of highlights from today:

@baileyensis found this Land Snail (Brazieresta larreyi) which was the first sighting uploaded to iNat and was identified by expert Kevin Bonham: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/60938372

@adrian2370 managed to photograph these two Rainbow Bee-Eaters (Merops ornatus): https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/60941268

@mdebrauwer saw some Light-blue Soldier Crabs (Mictyris longicarpus): https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/60940963

@dianadavey caught a glimpse of the beautiful Azure Kingfisher (Ceyx azureus): https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/60938640

If there are any other cool sightings I have missed that you feel should be highlighted, please tag me in them!!

Thanks to the identifiers for all their hard work, it is much appreciated and we would not be doing so well without you!

One day to go!! Photos first, upload later. We have 10 days to upload after the event finishes at midnight tomorrow. Well done all!
