All Alabamians are invited to join Weeks Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve in celebrating World Environment Day by participating in the Alabama Backyard BioBlitz on Friday, June 5, 2020. The event encourages the public to explore and document the natural world from the comfort of their own backyards. This year's theme is biodiversity.
To participate in the event, download the free iNaturalist app from the Apple or Android app stores and search for the “Alabama Backyard BioBlitz” project. After joining the project on June 5, participants can observe and document the plants, animals, and insects present near their homes like this opossum and her young. You can also participate through the iNaturalist website at www.inaturalist.org/projects/alabama-backyard-bioblitz.
For updates, follow Weeks Bay on Facebook.
