Spring BioBlitz at the EEC

Come join us out in the beautiful tidal marsh areas of Don Edwards SF Bay National Wildlife Refuge to learn about the Refuge and the iNaturalist App. We welcome beginners as well as experienced users of the iNaturalist app. With this community science platform, you will get a guided experience observing and identifying our local flora and fauna. All you’ll need is a smartphone, comfortable outdoor-wear, and 2 hours of your time!

We will be leading the walk on the New Chicago Marsh Trail at the Alviso Unit of the Refuge to check out native California plants, exciting bird species, and much more! The trail will be approximately 0.5 miles and is suitable for folks with mobility limitations. If you need any more accommodations, please don’t hesitate to reach out to watershedwatchers@sfbayws.org.

Once you create a username and password, we will help you with the rest. If you need more guidance, no worries – that’s why we are here to host new learners, neophytes, and novices.
