A BIG thanks to everyone who came out to this year’s Berkshire BioBlitz at the Treemile Hill Trail & Fountain Pond in Great Barrington. Below are the species totals by group. Together, 24 volunteers identified 402 species in just 24-hours! Everyone did a spectacular job. Thanks you to our hosts: Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation, Berkshire Natural Resources Council and Berkshire South Regional Community Center as well as our sponsors Massachusetts Service Alliance, The Nature Conservancy, Great Barrington Land Conservancy, Greenagers, AMC-Berkshire, Project Native, Flying Cloud Institute, Dr. Augie’s Science Education Programs and Berkshire Environmental Action Team!
