Spring is in full swing, and there’s no better way to celebrate than getting outside and discovering what’s alive around us! Join HHLT staff and Wild Woods Restoration Project, for a community BioBlitz at Lane Gate Preserve, in Cold Spring, NY, where participants of all experience levels are invited to document as many plant, animal, and fungi species as possible in a single day.

Using iNaturalist, a free app that connects naturalists and scientists worldwide. All observations made at the event will contribute directly to HHLT’s project record. Whether you spot a wildflower you’ve never noticed before or a familiar bird returning for the season, every sighting counts and all participants are welcome!

Heading out to HHLT preserves this spring through summer? HHLT’s other preserves are open year-round and every observation you log there adds to the picture of what’s thriving across our protected lands. Get out, explore, and track your data HERE.

Please note there are no restrooms at the preserve. Have binoculars? Bring them along! Loaner supplies are limited.
