SUMMARY:Marsh Creek Community Bioblitz
DESCRIPTION:An opportunity for connection and collaboration with all those who care about nature! \n\n\n\n\nJoin us Friday September 25 and Saturday September 26 for two days of nature-packed activities as we discover Marsh Creek’s wild side as part of the Canadian Wildlife Federation’s Great Canadian Bioblitz. Organized by Prince Edward County Field Naturalists (PECFN) and Feral Folc in partnership with the South Shore Joint Initiative\, Prince Edward Point Bird Observatory\, Friends of Delhi Park\, VTLA Studio and Trees for PEC. \nA ‘bioblitz’ is a 24-hour event that invites residents\, visitors\, naturalists and nature lovers of all ages and experience levels to work collectively as community scientists to observe and document the remarkable biodiversity of a specific place using the iNaturalist app. \nAnyone can participate and all observations documented will contribute to a better understanding of overall ecosystem health while supporting one of Canada’s largest community science initiatives. This collaboration and recording of local plants\, animals\, insects\, fungi and more is intended to build local knowledge\, strengthen relationships and lay the groundwork for ongoing community stewardship and ecological monitoring along Marsh Creek. \nThe Bioblitz is FREE to attend and will offer iNaturalist training\, informative learning materials about local wildlife\, drop-in exploration and activities for all ages\, as well as scheduled walks\, workshops and conversations on specific themes and species. No previous experience necessary\, just curiosity and a willingness to slow down and look a little closer. \nThe Marsh Creek and Delhi Park Community Bioblitz iNaturalist project study area follows Marsh Creek from Glenwood Cemetery\, through Delhi Park to Picton Bay. Already\, the iNat project has 84 observers who have contributed 381 observations representing 191 species. This beloved green space in the heart of Picton is home to wetlands\, a creek\, meadow and mature tree canopy\, all providing essential habitat and an ecological corridor for wildlife. \nRegistering for the Bioblitz helps us anticipate attendees and allows us to update you on potential weather cancellations as well as sharing the final report. It’s recommended but not required.
