2018 Durham Region Ontario BioBlitz Events

Since 2012, the Ontario BioBlitz program has presented a single event annually, and shared the details of other events happening around the province. In 2018, we're doing things a little different! 

For the first time, we are planning and presenting multiple bioblitz events run by the Ontario BioBlitz team. These events will take place across the Durham Region, and will be bookended by the Lynde Creek Watershed BioBlitz in May, and the Duffins Creek BioBlitz in September. Smaller "mini-blitzes" and workshops are being planned throughout the summer. You can find them listed below as details are confirmed.

All summer, from May 11 to September 23, anyone visiting, living, or travelling through the Durham Region, can contribute to our iNaturalist project, and join us in being citizen scientists. Project link coming soon!
