Join us for an NPWS BIOBLITZ event at Kilkeran Lake and Castlefreke Dunes next Monday 20th May (8:30pm-10:30pm) and Tuesday 21st May (9am-6pm). Full Programme below.
The event offers opportunities to learn more about the biodiversity at this Special Area of Conservation (SAC) during Biodiversity Week 2024.
The aim of the BioBlitz is to identify as many species as possible, from the smallest bugs to the largest mammals, across a variety of habitats from sand dunes to sea, coastal lagoons, reed beds and woodlands.
On hand to help will a number ecological experts who are specialists in the fields of birds, botany, bats, lichens, seaweeds, bryophytes, newts, reptiles, moths, spiders, hoverflies and marine mammals. The BioBlitz basecamp will be at the Fish Basket Café, Long Strand.
A total of fifty SACs across Europe will be taking part in the Natura 2000 Day BioBlitz 2024. There’s an element of competition to see which site will record the most species, but it’s mostly about fun, learning and public participation so come and join us next week!
