Cowra's Bioblitz Survey & Picnic

A bioblitz is a citizen science event where scientists & the public work together to record and identify as many different species as possible in a specific area over a, set time period.

The Great Southern Bioblitz is an international period of intense biological surveying in an attempt to record all the living species within several designated areas across the Southern Hemisphere in Spring.

​

The purpose of this event is to highlight both the immense biodiversity spread across the Southern Hemisphere in the flourishing springtime, as well as to engage the public in science and nature learning using the citizen science platform iNaturalist.

This free event is suitable for the whole community & the Mid Lachlan Landcare team will be on-hand to help you take and up-load photographs to the iNaturalist platform.

Wear sun/rain protection, water & wear enclosed shoes. Bring a picnic rug/chair and some lunch for an after-blitz picnic
