Join BioBlitz Club and Keep Coyote Creek Beautiful for our first South Bay ID Party! At the end of April each year, we host BioBlitz events as part of the City Nature Challenge - a global event where hundreds of cities from around the world will compete on the highest number of observations, observers, and species on iNaturalist.
