Join Sonoma County Parks and the California Academy of Sciences in the fourth of a series of Sonoma County grassroots bioblitzes! Carrington Coast Ranch offers 335 acres of sweeping views of Bodega Head, Salmon Creek, and the Sonoma Coast from meadows, grasslands, historic springs, ancient Cypress trees, unique canyons, and rolling hills on both sides Coleman Valley Road. A former dairy ranch, there are numerous photogenic historic buildings (homesteads and barns) awaiting restoration on the property. The two story wood frame house dates back to the late 19th century and is one of the oldest remaining structures in Sonoma County.
A bioblitz is an intensive one-day study of biodiversity in a specific location. We’ll look for birds, mammals, fish, reptiles, butterflies, insects, spiders, trees, flowers, mushrooms, anything!
People of all ages and skill levels are welcome! You bring your curiosity, a smart phone with the iNaturalist app downloaded (or digital camera), and tons of enthusiasm. We’ll rally some experts and folks who know the area. Together we’ll make some science!
The fun starts at 9 am on Saturday, August 6. We'll explore the area and document everything we can find for a few hours, then we'll all come back together to upload our observations, see what everyone else found, and get help with IDs.
