Join us for our second annual BioBlitz on Saturday, April 25. We will spread out at Coyote Point Park to discover species of birds, plants, mammals, fish, invertebrates, and reptiles, and record our findings.

Registered participants will meet at 8:30 AM and the "Blitzing" will begin at 9 AM. From there, we will divide into teams and spend about 3 hours exploring sections of the park and taking pictures of the flora and fauna we find. We'll finish at 12:00 PM and will have our "Wrap-Up" session in CuriOdyssey (within Coyote Point Park) where you can upload your findings to iNaturalist and discuss with experts about the different species you found.

  • People of all ages and skill levels are welcome.
  • Bring your smart phone for sure.
  • Bonus: Bring your camera, binoculars, and magnifying glasses.
