Did you know that California has a special holiday just to celebrate biodiversity?
Let’s celebrate by having a month-long bioblitz through iNaturalist to help scientists document our local organisms.
California is home to more diverse species and ecosystems than anywhere in the U.S., and Monterey County is one of the most diverse in the state. How lucky we are to live here!
If you were unable to join us on Saturday, September 26 to learn more about local biodiversity — see the video below for that discussion. We explored the immense world of insects, found out how many species call the central coast home, and even discovered endangered species. View the video below to learn about the BioBlitz winners!
