A BioBlitz is a communal citizen-science effort to record as many species as possible, within a designated location and time period, using the iNaturalist app
The objective is to connect with nature and others, while providing useful data for scientific biodiversity conservation purposes.
Just make as many iNaturalist observations as possible at JAC
No sign-up is needed to participate in the BioBlitz.
