Town of Candia Web Site

The CCC keeps a record of all reported wildlife sightings in Candia. Use the form below to tell us about your discoveries! Please try to be as accurate as possible. The table at the bottom of the page is updated monthly. The data is derived from the information provided via the form below and the sheet available at the town office building.



Wildlife Sightings Form

Use the following form to submit your wildlife sightings.
  • Please make a separate entry for each type of wildlife seen.

  • It is helpful to us to know the frequency with which wildlife visits your yard or areas that you ramble about in Candia. Should you see a particular species several times throughout the year at a particular location, we encourage you to make a separate entry, with a different date and time, for each sighting/identification at this location.

  • If you have a digital photograph to document your sighting, please send it to sightings@candiaconservationcommission.org after submitting the form.
