What is NatureLog?
NatureLog is a free web app for recording your wildlife sightings. The lexicon covers 575 species native to Germany – birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, insects and spiders – with profile, size, habitat and conservation status. Mark every species you spot in the wild as seen and add your best photo of it. Step by step, that becomes your personal nature journal.
