Be a part of a citizen science movement and contribute to the Portland-Vancouver species inventory!

The event is free and open to all ages. No experience is necessary! Volunteers will receive brief training on using the iNaturalist app and experts will be on hand to help identify species. Pre-registration is required. Snacks and beverages are provided!. You can sign up for one or more shifts.

At last year's EcoBlitz, 78 volunteers in 7 hours made over 300 species identifications and noted 161 individual species!!! less ↑
