Great Southern BioBlitz - Learning to use iNaturalist

Learn to use iNaturalist and contribute to the citizen science community during the Great Southern BioBlitz 2025.

The City of Holdfast Bays Urban Greening Officer will show you how to add and identify plants and animals using the iNaturalist application in real time. You will have the opportunity to practice using the app with the support of staff and ask questions as you learn, all while contributing to the Great Southern BioBlitz in 2025.

The 'Great Southern BioBlitz', or 'GSB' for short, 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.
