Calling all curious humans! Let’s get out there and find all the life that surrounds us, both small and large.

13-29 Christian Hill Rd

A <a href="https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/bioblitz/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">BioBlitz </a>is an event that focuses on finding and identifying as many living species as possible. From fungi to trees, mammals to insects and everything in between, we will try to catch ‘em all, this time at WLT&#x27;s newest property, the <a href="https://westerlylandtrust.org/portfolio/cottrell-family-preserve/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Cottrell Family Preserve</a>. This is a great opportunity to explore a new property and help WLT build our baseline data for these 21 acres along the Pawcatuck River filled with mountain laurel, a small meadow, wetlands, exposed ledge and riparian habitat.This is a FREE, all-ages, all-abilities and family-friendly event – it doesn’t matter if you are an expert naturalist or have never stepped into the woods before. The event will be from 4pm to 8pm, but participants can arrive or leave any time they would like to.There will be snacks and refreshments and a whole bunch of adventure! And thanks to our friends at the <a href="https://wpwa.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Wood-Pawcatuck Watershed Association</a>, we will have canoes and kayaks to explore the river on!There are some great tools out there besides field guides and experts that can help you identify all kinds of different species of plants and animals out there.
