The Great Southern BioBlitz is an ‘international period of intense biological survey by citizen scientists to record all the living species within local government areas across the Southern Hemisphere using the iNaturalist app.
You can do this self-guided activity in your local park or backyard. If you’re keen to contribute data for the Gold Coast area, download the free app and FIND OUR PROJECT HERE.
You can find all the details about the event and how to use iNaturalist here.
It’s a great way to connect to nature and learn more about our unique plants and animals in a fun and interactive way while also contributing to science! We recommend using the obscure feature if you have found rare or threatened species to help protect their exact location or if submitting a sighting from private property.
You can also join our free guided flora and reptile citizen science sessions by searching free NaturallyGC sessions and upload as we go!
