Calling all Naturalists!
June 20th, in just a few days, kicks off National Pollinator Week. To celebrate, Conservation Districts from around New Hampshire are entering a friendly competition to document each county's pollinators. Collectively, how many bees, wasps, beetles, hummingbirds, butterflies, moths, ants, sawflies, and flies can we find in the Granite State next week? 200, 300, or even 400 species?
I've taken the liberty of tagging some of NH's frequent iNaturalist contributors below, and please help spread to word to others!

Dust off your bug nets and moth lights - it's time for a statewide pollinator bioblitz!

I'll post every thing I find! I've been talking about a moth light night. Now I have the push I need to do it.
Rats! I was there June 2-8. Alas I am now home in California. Loved New Hampshire!
I won't be in NH until the 4th. I'll be sure to look for pollinators then, though.
Sounds like fun. Count me in!
The buzz says put your money on Rockingham County. We're taking it all baby! Happy hunting! TJ in Derry
@billryerson and I are back in NH so we'll aim to boost the Hillsborough county stats!!!
Ooh this sounds like fun. I will be looking for some stuff. Have fun y'all!
I'll do everything I can, I have been finding a lot of moths recently. Also been seeing a lot of bees around my yard. See you guys out there! :D
I'll be looking for them and posting what I see.
I am going to the Moth/Caterpillar Lab event in Lee on Saturday night. I'll pick up lots of tips for use in the week to come.
