Making Urban Greenspace Count Mini Bioblitz- Saturday 24th June 2017
Knightswood Park, Bassett Avenue, Glasgow G13 3XW
Become a wildlife explorer for a day and discover what’s living right on your doorstep by joining in at your local BioBlitz event. Our team of experienced naturalists and wildlife watchers need your help to find and identify as many different species of birds, bugs, plants and beasties as we can before the clock runs out. Just like a real scientific expedition, everything we find will be documented and passed on to local and national databases that monitor our local wildlife. With interactive activities for kids, grown-ups, beginners and experts alike there is something for everyone at a BioBlitz.
What’s happening
At the Community Rewilding BioBlitz you can explore the amazing location as we will have exciting and hands-on wildlife activities and surveys.
Drop in and see us on the day at Knightswood Park, Glasgow, Saturday 24th June for some amazing wildlife recording activities around the park to see how many plant and animal species you can spot! Simple wildlife surveys around the park: bug hunting, pond dipping, bird watching, explore the mini labortatory and more!
