Bras d’Or Watch is an initiative which introduces people to the unique Bras d’Or ecosystem, in Cape Breton. As an iNaturalist Project it tracks species that call the Bras D'Or Lakes (Mi'kmaq: Pitu'paq) home - including birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, fungi, and plants. The iNaturalist project is for all ages and took place from July 22 to August 8, 2022. See the iNaturalist results for the event can be seen here.
