Join us for a bioblitz in Gilbert's own Riparian Preserve. Enjoy a fun outdoor event with other nature lovers in your community while locating as many plant and animal species as possible. This is an exciting citizen science event, open to adults and families with children ages 5+. All skill levels welcome. Let's get outside and explore! Bring a smartphone or a digital camera to document species if possible. Don't have either? No problem! Join us and we will pair you up with those who have them. If using a smartphone, you can download the iNaturalist app to upload observations easily. Remember to also bring water, sunscreen, and good walking shoes. Dress for the weather. Most of all bring your curiosity and enthusiasm! We will be joined by local experts who will help identify species and know the area.
