Bioblitz Anyone?
There was a bioblitz at a nature center on Long Island yesterday. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who knows of bioblitzes being held elsewhere in the area.

This Fine Piece of Water - An Environmental History of Long Island Sound
About Sphere & Tom Andersen
This is a blog about environmental issues in the New York area in general and Long Island Sound in particular. I'm the author of "This Fine Piece of Water: An Environmental History of Long Island Sound," which came out in 2002. I wrote about the environment and other issues during almost two decades as a newspaper reporter.

The Bronx River Alliance, N.Y. City Parks, and Westchester Parks will be hosting a Bio Blitz for the Bronx River on June 10th and 11th, from 12:00 noon Friday to 12:00 noon Saturday. The data we collect will be useful in guiding future restoration efforts. We are coordinating our effort with another Bio Blitz taking place simultaneously in Berlin, Germany at their Tiergarten, essentially the "central park" of Berlin. Communication, in real time, between these two efforts will be made during the day through the efforts of Geo Magazine, which is the European version of National Geographic. We are still accepting volunteers, both with a professional science background or avocation, and those enthusiastic enough to poke around and help collect specimens and data. If you're reading this and are interested, please contact Jeff Main, Westchester Parks Senior Curator at (914) 864-7051 or by e-mail: jmm0@westchestergov.com
