Join your neighbors in celebrating and discovering the abundance of life this June by participating in the Whatcom Wildlife Bioblitz! This event focuses on finding and identifying as many species of birds, salmon, intertidal animals, and mammals as possible in Whatcom County from June 4th through 12th. Participants can join in any of the specific Whatcom Wildlife Bioblitz events happening around the county, or by identifying animals in their own backyard. This event is open to all ages, and the only prerequisites for participation are to be able to take photos and create an iNaturalist account. A prize will go to the participant who finds and records the most species. To join this week of fun and discovery visit: whatcomcd.org/whatcom-wildlife-tracking.
