What is a bioblitz?

A bioblitz is an event to find and identify all the living species within a specific area over a designated of time. People taking part may be scientists, conservationists and members of the public, who collaborate to count and record as many species of plants, animals, fungi, birds, insects and other organisms as possible. The information recorded helps build an understanding of what species live there, and can be compared to past and future data to build a picture over time.
