Lassen Creek Conservation Area Bio Blitz

Join LLTT staff, board members, and local naturalists for a morning of exploring and learning at the 385 acre Lassen Creek Conservation Area. Team up with skilled birders, plant nerds, insect lovers, and mammal track hunters for a morning of fun! Or, head out on your own for solo discovery. We are also looking for 3 - 4 volunteers to help collect insects using a variety of collection methods.

What is a bioblitz? A bioblitz is a communal effort to record observations of species of plants, insects, birds, mammals within a designated location and time period.

LLTT will provide datasheets and maps plus detailed directions the day of the event. Data can be collected via old-fashioned datasheets and also via the Lassen Creek Conservation Area Project page on iNaturalist. Details on using iNaturalist will be provided to all who register.

Sign up to learn more and to participate.
