Nature blogging

Nature blogging

This session is moderated by Grrrlscientist and Kevin Zelnio:

Take your camera outdoors and bring your local natural beauty and wildlife to the homes of your readers. Add information about it. Join the nature blogging community and participate in community activities no matter where on the planet you are.

Discuss:

What do you think about collaborative global sites like: iNaturalist, Faunapolis, Scratchpads, The Internet Bird Collection and Useum?

How important are blog carnivals in connecting nature-loving folks (e.g., I And The Bird, Circus of the Spineless, Carnival of the Blue, Oeckologie…)?

Who is the audience? What are they looking for, what are they finding?

How much science is (and should or should not be) associated with nature stories and pictures?
