California Biodiversity Day BioBlitz – Alviso
California Biodiversity Day is all about appreciating the many species that call California home. The San Francisco Bay Wildlife Society will be leading a BioBlitz to celebrate!
BioBlitzing involves exploring an area in search of plants, birds, insects, mammals, fungi, reptiles and any other organisms around. We’ll be snapping photos and posting them to iNaturalist so we have records of our amazing biodiversity, essential to understanding how things are changing or staying the same on the Don Edwards Refuge.
