Hello Spider Fest iNaturalist users!
For anyone interested in continuing the BioBlitz fun, I wanted to invite you to NHMU's Neighborhood Naturalist bioblitz tomorrow 8/24 from 10am-2pm. We will be at the Backman Community Open Space (an undeveloped open space just west of the Jordan River, and Backman Elementary School). You can find us at: 578 Riverside Drive, Salt Lake City, 84116 (more info in the link below).
This open space is slated to see some infrastructure updates starting this fall and into 2020, including a bridge over the Jordan River, and a complete overhaul of the open space, turning it into a formal City Park.
Before construction begins, we are collecting data to inform the city about the current biodiversity of the site, to influence future management of the space. We could use your help documenting the species living in this open space!
Come engage with the NHMU Citizen Science staff and other iNaturalist enthusiasts, and hep us catalogue the biodiversity of Backman Open Space!
