Join the ThINC Bio-Blitz Challenge - Discover Nature, Win Prizes!
Thursday, July 31, 2025 at 1:35PM Hey Nature Lovers!
In case you missed it, ThINC is hosting a Bio-Blitz Challenge using the app iNaturalist. It is a fun and meaningful way to explore Thetis Island’s wild side while contributing to real scientific research. Whether you're part of a ThINC program or just love snapping photos of local plants and critters, this is for you!
You’ll learn to identify plants, animals, and marine life through hands-on activities and guided experiences woven into programs like: Junior Biologists, Sea Life Centre Critter ID, and Expert Excursions. OR - take it on solo - go ID crazy and upload your sightings anytime!
How to join:
1. Sign up at iNaturalist
2. Join our project: ThINC 2025 Bio-Blitz - www.inaturalist.org/projects/thetis-island-nature-conservancy-2025-bio-blitz
Start observing! No need to be connected - upload photos when you can.
The challenge runs until August 24th, but any photos taken since June 1st count.
There will be prizes, with winners announced at the Nature House wrap-up on August 24!
