Monitoring of butterflies in green spaces by professional gardeners to measure changes in populations and assess the impact of management practices on butterflies
Protocole Papillons Gestionnaires
Observers conduct timed species counts (ten-minute counts along a transect) three times a year (June, July, August) to identify and count the butterflies they observe.
BIRDLAB is a citizen’s observatory that aims to study bird behavior at the feeder in winter. Participation is via a game played on a smartphone or tablet.
BIRDLAB
Participate from a garden, a balcony or a deck by installing two feeders and by watching the birds as they come and go at the feeders using the BirdLab app.
Opération Papillons aims to improve scientific knowledge on butterflies. The data collected over the long term should help measure the effects of human activities on these species.
Opération Papillon
Participants carry out inventories of butterflies in their gardens or on their balconies, noting the maximum number of individuals seen together for each species. At the end of each week of observation, the data are entered on the observatory website.
Sauvages de ma rue (Wilderness on my street) is a citizens’ observatory from Vigie-Nature that lets urban dwellers learn to identify the wild plants that grow on the streets in their neighborhoods. The data are used for urban ecology research.
Sauvages de ma Rue
Participants carry out inventories of wild plants that grow on city streets. They note the presence of plant species from among 240 plants listed in the protocol and indicate whether they are growing at the base of a tree, on sidewalks, in the grass, etc.
Oiseaux des Jardins aims to obtain qualitative and quantitative data to better understand the impact of human activities on bird populations.
Oiseaux des Jardins
Participants identify and count the birds they see in their garden as often as they wish throughout the year. The protocol requires no prior knowledge.
Observatoire des Bourdons aims to obtain qualitative and quantitative data on bumblebees to better understand the impact of global changes on these pollinating insects.
Observatoire des Bourdons
Participants carry out inventories of bumblebees in their gardens or on their balconies, noting the maximum number of individuals seen together for each species. At the end of each week of observation, the data are entered on the observatory website.
