Thank you!

Thank you all! We did it!

2024 Friends of Cave Creek Canyon BioBlitz is officially history. Forty-two observers post 489 observations, with 228 species identified. Sixty-nine identifiers are continuing to make our observations research grade as they confirm species identifications.

A huge thank you to all 42 observers! This includes many observers from the Center for Academic Success (Douglas AZ) 7th grade class who kicked off the project on Thursday, April 25. It also includes many community members from Portal, Paradise and Rodeo. Our highest contributor in terms of observations and species count, Tom, is a visitor from out of state who showed up as a supportive community member while visiting Cave Creek Canyon. Many thanks Tom! Many thanks to everyone who participated!

I had a great time and hope that everyone participating did too! What a tribute to the biodiversity and biological richness of Cave Creek Canyon. There are many questions that local students/young scientists can ask of the data reported in this BioBlitz. I am happy to help think about that with anyone who is interested.

Hope to see you all back the next time we host a BioBlitz in the canyon.
