Sesquicentennial Bioblitz - 150 Year Accounting of Riverside's Flora and Fauna In-Person
Spend time in nature and learn about local wildlife from expert scientists at this hands-on exploration of Riverside's natural areas. This is your opportunity to contribute to a wildlife census by identifying and counting local species. With the help of scientists and citizen-scientists like you, we will update a Riverside's biological database, providing insight on our local ecosystem.
From 10 am - 12 pm, the Brookfield Zoo will to on hand with an interactive "Connect. Care. Conserve." display focused on songbirds and pollinators.
When registering, please indicate the time you can participate and your area of interest. The schedule for the day is:

Census information can be entered into iNaturalist. The project link and information will be sent in your registration confirmation. We'll meet at the Library before going off to Bioblitz.
