Cahaba BioBlitz 2025

This free, family-friendly conservation & environmental education event – led by some of our region’s premiere nature and wildlife experts – is a chance for people from all backgrounds to be introduced to citizen science and safe recreation in the outdoors. At a BioBlitz, scientists, families, students, teachers, and other community members work together to get a snapshot of an area’s biodiversity. Enjoy connecting to nature and discovering new critters while contributing to scientific data collection on local biodiversity.

Fun Fact: The last BioBlitz at this location was almost 10 years ago, making this a rare opportunity to gather new data on the park’s changing ecosystem.

What is a BioBlitz?
At a BioBlitz, scientists, families, students, teachers, and other community members work together to get a snapshot of an area’s biodiversity. This BioBlitz will bring local scientists, educators, conservation organizations, and community members together to build an awareness of the biodiversity within local ecosystems while collecting useful scientific data. Teams of volunteers will work with onsite experts to find and identify as many species of plants and animals, on land and in the water, as can be found on this special site.
