Hard to believe it’s already the middle of September… and that means we’re already half way through the second annual Los Angeles BioBlitz Challenge, sponsored by the Los Angeles Public Library’s Neighborhood Science Program and LA Sanitation & Environment’s Biodiversity Program.
This year is the fourth celebration of California Biodiversity Day, which takes place every Sept 7th with events from Sept 3rd - 11th.

Researchers want your help to collect samples at four specific locations in Los Angeles as part of a much wider effort in the state to learn about changes in biodiversity.
The project, called CALeDNA, for California Environmental DNA, encourages everyone to be a citizen scientist. Volunteers get a kit to take small amounts of soil, sediment, and water.
The creek freaks of Los Angeles seek out the city’s secret water—and fight to set it free.
