Hellyer County Park BioBlitz

May 18 @ 12:00 pm - 2:30 pm

Parks are amazing and wonderful green spaces full of living things. Just using your phone, help us discover them!

A BioBlitz is an event that focuses on finding and identifying as many species as possible in a specific area over a short period of time. At a BioBlitz, scientists, families, students, teachers, and other community members work together to get an overall count of the plants, animals, fungi, and other organisms that live in a place.

Located in the heart of San Jose, the park we will be at is a safe haven for many species of plants and animals right along Coyote Creek. Join Keep Coyote Creek Beautiful and partners in cataloging and documenting all of the wildlife that reside there. We will have experts in various fields to help guide participants through all the cool plants and wildlife.

The best part? All you need to participate is a smart phone with the iNaturalist app!

So bring your family and prepare for an in-depth tour of this great park.

Community service hours available

Hosted by Keep Coyote Creek Beautiful, BioBlitz Club, Santa Clara Valley Bird Alliance, and Peninsula Open Space Trust
