Help us take a mid-summer snapshot of the biodiversity found in Idlewild Park! Experts specializing in insects, birds, plants, mammals, and reptiles will be exploring the park with a goal of identifying as many species as possible, and they need your help. In addition to the bioblitz, the event is part of Artown and will have plenty of engaging nature-based art projects that encourage learning about the natural world. The bioblitz is FREE and open to ALL ages, so take advantage of this opportunity to get outside and enjoy and one of our premiere Reno parks. The full blitz schedule will be up at our website soon, but for now, dust off that old field guide and study up! |
