Friday, April 9 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM
The 2021 Border BioBlitz is a community science effort to record as many species as possible along the U.S.-Mexico border during the month of April. Join members of the project as they share updates and discuss the importance of binational collaboration to documenting, protecting and preserving this one-of-a-kind location. You’ll also learn how you can help with this important effort—it’s as easy as using a smartphone or desktop computer! Before the talk, be sure to download the iNaturalist app (free for Android and iOS) and to join our project. eBird users are also welcome to participate.
