BioBlitz! Oklahoma 2016

Greetings Everyone,

Currently in Marshall County, OK at the University of Oklahoma Biological Station and surrounding areas participating in Oklahoma BioBlitz 2016. I made the decision to only enter observations that have photo documentation into the iNaturalist database. I also decided not to stay up all night processing photos, so it will be two or three days before the all of the photos are added to the observations. Highlights so far include two new Tiger beetle species for the county, lot's of Carolina Metallic tiger beetles (and larva) along the lake edge after dark, White-Winged doves (now widespread and locally common in Oklahoma) , Neon and Roseate Skimmers. We've had a couple of down years numbers-wise, but the weather looks good for tomorrow, there's a good range of habitat, so with luck we can break the 1,000 species mark by 4:00 Saturday.
