BioBlitz volunteer
The Whau River Catchment Trust is a non-profit that aims to protect and restore the Whau River and the wider catchment, creating spaces where both native wildlife and people can thrive through education and restoration projects.
We’re conducting a BioBlitz to document the diverse species found in Craigavon Park. This will help establish a baseline of local biodiversity, allowing us to track changes in species presence over time. Participants will take photos (observations) of living organisms in the park and use the iNaturalist app to identify and upload these observations to a public online database.
Please download the app and create an account before the event to take part. Don’t worry if you’re not familiar with it — our volunteers will be there to help you get started!
personal mobile data will be needed to upload observations online
The date is scheduled for November 6th, and our meetup site will be next to the Craigavon car park at the sheltered area within the trees.
