Description:

Join Keep Coyote Creek Beautiful, Bioblitz Club, Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority, Santa Clara Valley Bird Alliance, and Peninsula Open Space Trust for a BioBlitz!

A BioBlitz is an event that focuses on finding and identifying as many species as possible in a specific area over a short period of time. At a BioBlitz, scientists, families, students, teachers, and other community members work together to get an overall count of the plants, animals, fungi, and other organisms that live in a place.

Join the BioBlitz at Spreckels Hill where you and experts come together to explore, document, and catalog all of the living things that reside there. Spreckels Hill is a permanently protected open space and is not open to the public. This BioBlitz is a special opportunity to explore this beautiful area, which will be restored to its natural habitat in the future.

Docents will guide you and teach you to use the iNaturalist app on your smartphone to record all the living things you encounter. Flowers, trees, butterflies, dragonflies, and beetles, birds, and squirrels. We love them all - now let's go find them!

The best part? All you need to participate is a smart phone with the iNaturalist app!

So bring your family and prepare for an in-depth tour of this great trail.

*Community service hours available*

*Spreckels Hill is not currently open to the public, and is only open for special access events*
