Description: BioBlitz 2012
Scientists, teachers, students and the public will gather to participate in this one day biological inventory, attempting to identify and record the many species of living organisms at the Arboretum. There will be experts on birds, bats, flowers, mushrooms, and, of course, game calling. Participants will be scouting insects, birds, snakes, spiders, plants, mushrooms, landsnails, trees and more.
BioBlitzes are conducted to learn more about an area's biodiversity, distribution and abundance. They are a blend of science, education, community and loads of fun. Spend a day with experts identifying birds, insects, flowers, reptiles and even spiders. And there's lots more!
