Great Southern Bioblitz 2025
Past Event
Join the Great Southern Bioblitz – and uncover the wild side of Vic Park! 🌿🐞
From 24–27 October, the Great Southern Bioblitz (GSB) invites nature lovers, families, schools and curious locals to help document the incredible biodiversity that surrounds us — from backyard bugs and street trees to birds, fungi, and everything in between!
Born right here in Australia, the Great Southern Bioblitz is a global citizen science event that unites people across the southern hemisphere to record and celebrate their local flora and fauna using the free iNaturalist app. Simply snap a photo, upload it, and your sighting becomes part of a massive international biodiversity database that helps scientists and communities protect nature.
Why get involved? Because the data you collect helps shape real conservation decisions — from tracking endangered species to spotting new invasive species. It’s also a fun, hands-on way to explore your local environment, learn more about native plants and animals, and connect with your community.
You don’t need to be an expert — just have a keen eye, a camera, and a sense of adventure. Every photo counts, every observation matters, and together we can put Vic Park’s biodiversity on the map!
👉 When: 24–27 October
👉 How: Download iNaturalist, explore your neighbourhood, and upload what you find.
Let’s see what’s living right under our noses — join the Bioblitz and help celebrate the wild heart of Vic Park! 🌳✨
