Description

In the past, if you wanted to go hiking and identify the plants and animals you encountered, you had to bring along a field guide. Today, there are free mobile apps that can identify birds by their songs and recognize plants, fungi, amphibians, insects, and more from a photo. In this talk, education specialists from the Department of Natural Resources will discuss how to use these apps responsibly and how to verify your identifications using other reliable sources.
