2025 Bioblitz – Mogumber
Bioblitz. Mogumber Town Reserve. 30th-31st August 2025. This free event is open to EVERYONE to learn about and experience WA natural environment.
A BioBlitz is a 24-hour event involving rapid collection of data about the biological diversity of a particular site; enabling scientists and other experts to identify as many plant and animal species as can be found in this limited time frame. It doesn’t provide a complete inventory of species, but rather a ‘snapshot’ of the species that occur in the area.
