100 species challenge

there has been a challenge posted via geekdad blog that they got from this blog.

the challenge is to Identify a 100 plants species within a mile of your home.
geekdad has expanded "...The 100-Species Challenge to include every living thing we could find and photograph – plants, animals, and indeterminate micro-organisms included."

so I will attempt a count down to see if we can identify 100 species.

I found a animal checklist site for BC.
