About this Event

A Bioblitz is a communal effort to record as many species within a designated location and time period as possible. Using the iNaturalist app, Tom will guide you around Sydenham Hill Wood and Dulwich Wood where you will be learning to identify your observations while contributing to the database of species living within the woodland. This walk will focus on the underappreciated flowers of woods. As the brighter blossoms take centre stage this spring, join the search for the more elusive, less flamboyant, but equally beautiful flowers above and below.
