BioBlitz at O’Hara Woods
Romeoville, IL
Saturday, April 23rd, 2022
Join us for our second annual BioBlitz at O’Hara Woods on Saturday, April 23rd from 8:00am – 12:00pm! This is an event where volunteers are encouraged to walk the woods and take pictures of whatever living things you find, including plants, birds, mushrooms, etc. We hosted a BioBlitz last year and we want to continue to cataloging what lives at O’Hara Woods.
This event will utilize a free-to-use phone app called iNaturalist to take pictures of any and all life that’s out on site, help identify what you’ve found, and post their locations to a map for other folks to see. We will use the observations you find to help inform how we manage O’Hara Woods in the future. This is a great family friendly project: all you need is a smartphone!
Register for the 2022 O’Hara Woods Bioblitz!
About a week before the event, we will send an email with details for the day and instructions for downloading and using the iNaturalist app. Please email Cassie Hatzfeld, Volunteer Coordinator, at chatzfeld@theconservationfoundation.org with questions.
