Species Identification

​

The SEEK app by inaturalist, enables identification of 1000s of different species and can be used to introduce young people to classification. It’s a wonderful way to study the biodiversity of the Quantocks Hills. Photographing, drawing and collecting natural finds for the artwork enables discussion about what trees, plants, insects and fungi live here.
