🌿 Griffith BioBlitz 2026 – Nathan Campus
Griffith University is inviting the community to take part in its 2026 BioBlitz on Friday 4 and Saturday 5 September.

The BioBlitz will survey the forest around the headwaters of Mimosa Creek, which flows into Bulimba Creek, providing an opportunity to help document the biodiversity found in this important local catchment.

📅 Friday 4 & Saturday 5 September 2026
⏰ 7:00 am–5:00 pm – participants can join for as much or as little time as they like

📍 Griffith University Nathan Campus, starting at the EcoCentre (Building N68)

A BioBlitz is a citizen science event where people of all experience levels help record plants, animals, fungi and other species. Participants simply download the iNaturalist app, take photos of species they find within the survey area and upload their observations.

The information collected contributes valuable data to help understand and manage the natural environment on campus.
