about everything from birds to butterflies, crickets to katydids! Participants in BioBlitz will join teams of scientists and skilled naturalists to study biodiversity in a fun, hands-on way.
Your family or team can choose to study aquatic life, flowers and trees, mushrooms, frogs, toads and snakes, explore a butterfly station, study insects of the night, birds, lichen and lots more.
This event is appropriate for all ages, and children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent.
Sessions are held at various times through the two-day event.
