What’s a BioBlitz?

It’s a fun and engaging way to contribute to science while enjoying the outdoors. Simply snap photos of plants, animals, birds, insects, and any other fascinating creatures you encounter on your journey. Share your observations with us and help scientists track local biodiversity, monitor rare species, and combat invasive ones.

Enhance Your Experience:

While all you really need is your trusty camera, we recommend bringing along binoculars, magnifying glasses, and creek nets to uncover even more hidden treasures. Don’t worry if you don’t have your own – we’ve got you covered with rentals available on-site!

Challenge Accepted:

Turn your adventure into a friendly competition! Gather your friends and family and see who can spot the most unique species. Let’s celebrate the rich biodiversity that surrounds us.
