BioBlitz is coming to Tandy Hills in April 2016!

Friends of Tandy Hills Natural Area (FOTHNA) and Texas Wesleyan University (TWU) have recently announced the receipt of a grant from the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department (TPWD). The grant, funded by the TPWD Conservation License Plate program, will help fund a BioBlitz at Tandy Hills (THNA) in April, 2016.

A BioBlitz is an intense period of biological surveying in an attempt to record all the living species within a designated area. Groups of scientists, naturalists and volunteers conduct an intensive field study over a continuous time period. (source: Wikipedia)

The first full-scale BioBlitz project in north Texas will produce a high quality, scientific inventory along with a video documenting the areas biological diversity and the BioBlitz, itself. There will be opportunities for the public to participate. Check www.tandyhills.org for updates.

In the meantime, you can keep collecting data at Tandy Hills via iNaturalist. Your contributions now & during BioBlitz will benefit the park in many ways.
