Murramarang BioBlitz Wrap-Up

The second Big Bushfire BioBlitz, held on the NSW South Coast in and around Murramarang National Park, is all wrapped up!
We were lucky enough to have perfect weather over the weekend this time around, and plenty of enthusiastic bioblitzers, including a large contingent from the ALA. Plants, birds, herps, bugs and more were all on offer, including a great beachcombing trip on Saturday morning and some fantastic spotlighting sessions on Friday and Saturday night.
Observations are still coming in thick and fast, but we're currently at 2252 observations, and already close to reaching 700 species and overtaking the Blue Mountains tally.

Some highlights:
Greater and yellow-bellied gliders https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?captive=any&place_id=any&project_id=129403&taxon_id=40151&verifiable=any
A smorgasbord of frogs, including a green and golden bell frog https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=any&project_id=big-bushfire-bioblitz-forests-of-the-nsw-south-coast&taxon_id=20979&verifiable=any
The critically endangered plant Rhodamnia rubescens https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?order_by=votes&place_id=any&project_id=big-bushfire-bioblitz-forests-of-the-nsw-south-coast&taxon_id=369597&verifiable=any
Some Merimbula Woodland Snails https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?order_by=votes&place_id=any&project_id=big-bushfire-bioblitz-forests-of-the-nsw-south-coast&taxon_id=1130288&verifiable=any
to go with the Blue Mountains Woodland Snails https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=any&project_id=big-bushfire-bioblitz-greater-blue-mountains-world-heritage-area&taxon_id=790114&verifiable=any
we found at the last bioblitz.

Looking at the two events thus far combined, we've almost hit 5000 observations and 1200 species, contributed by 92 observers (and of course importantly, with help from 345 identifiers). These are extremely impressive numbers, and will only continue to rise as more observations filter in.

It's likely that our third event (which was meant to run last week) will still go ahead at some point, but we're still figuring out the logistics of when and where; we'll keep you all updated!
