OMG is there any way I can help out with the Bat BioBlitz??
I'll show up to Llela on Saturday. Bioblitz!!!!!
@sambiology I'll try to help with the Tarleton and/or Nature Center blitzes in the afternoons. Who are the leaders for those?
Awesome! Hope you all are getting excited about these bioblitzes -- the competition is going to be mighty intense this year.
@troutlily57 -- I'm helping out with the Tarleton BioBlitz in the AM, but I think it'll continue in the afternoon - REALLY hope you can come to that. I think those observations are going to be particularly important...
I'm not sure who all is leading the Fort Worth Nature Center bioblitzes... I think there will be a few different folks leading and organizing it.
Thanks for compiling all the info!
Thanks for posting these, Sam! I'll be at FWNC to do a little spider info session (with live specimens of course) from 10a-12p on the 27th. I have 2 extra helpers this year visiting from Pennsylvania - they're abandoning their city for DFW :D
Here's the fun leaderboard for ALL of the cities:
