Our Field Station Team and Partners are hosting a one-day public Bioblitz on Saturday, June 13, at Three Waters Reserve and habitats in the Norwegian Creek Tributary Basin. This is a FREE community event for people of all ages and backgrounds to attend.
What is a bioblitz?! A bioblitz is a community science event where scientists, naturalists, and community volunteers come together to survey and record as many species as possible. This bioblitz will act as a “snapshot” of the biodiversity within our watershed.
Do I need to have any experience in ecology or a certain field? NO! We invite all community members, regardless of their background. This is an opportunity for you to learn more about what is living in the natural world around us.
What to expect:
We will have field forays held at Three Waters Reserve, the Sugar River Retreat, and Headgates Park. You can sign up for one foray, or stay all day!
We will have light refreshments and water available throughout the day, but guests are encouraged to bring their own as well. Dress for the weather.
Newly added, we have Easy Terrain Botany, Nature Journaling, self-led nature bingo cards, and tables with additional nature activities for anyone who would like to stay closer to the building while learning something new.
There will be a Lunch and Learn presentation, From Golf Course to Wild Refuge: How Biodiversity is Coming Back to the Sugar River, over the lunch hour, and an optional dinner; tickets are available for purchase for one or both of the meals.
