Welcome!
Thanks for your interest in this event, the first Bioblitz to be organized by the Martha's Vineyard Atlas of Life. With our partner organization, The Trustees of Reservations, we'll be surveying wildlife at Long Point Wildlife Refuge during the 24-hour period between 5:00 p.m. June 17, 2022, and 5:00 p.m. June 18, 2022. Teams of observers will be led by local wildlife experts. This project is also configured so that observations made at Long Point during the Bioblitz period will automatically be included in our results. The Trustees will be running family-friendly, drop-in surveys of aquatic life on the refuge shorelines. As plans develop, we hope to add more components: bat detector surveys, non-lethal mammal trapping, and a mothing event are among the possibilities. Please join the project to receive news, and we hope you will contribute to this fun "citizen science" event!
