BioBlitz |
In 2019, nearly 300 naturalists of all ages made observations of plants, mammals, birds, insects, reptiles, and fish. Guest scientists helped with identifications, and observations were entered into a global database, iNaturalist, to help track biodiversity. View the iNaturalist Wetlands Park Nature Journal. Once a naturalist, always a naturalist! You can still add to the Wetlands Park Nature Journal! When you visit Wetlands Park, take photos of the species you see and upload them to iNaturalist for identification help. Check out the kid-friendly Seek app by iNaturalist and earn badges while making identifications in Wetlands Park or even in your backyard. The app uses image recognition to tell you what plants and animals you are seeing. Please check back for BioBlitz 2021 information. |
