Inspired by the success of our mid-summer mini-Bioblitz at Lavigne Natural Park (1169 observations, 478 species documented (!) https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/lavigne-natural-park-2025-ofnc-bioblitz) , we figured why not do it again at an interesting spot within the city? The Carlington Woods is a good fit for this event, being centrally located in the city and high in biodiversity. Bring snacks, lunch, and water and let’s see how many species (& how many new species) we can document at this location during the autumn season. The leader will discuss techniques for documenting wildlife, and will show different hotspots at the property worth visiting.
