Hello, aspiring naturalists! My name is Robert Gibson, and I’m representing the good folks of the Oklahoma Biological Survey for our Spring 2019 BioBlitz! We have four weeks and six challenges ahead of us, as we celebrate a season of rebirth and renewal. All of us at HQ are thrilled to see what you discover this spring. Feel free to refer to this journal page as a way to stay updated on our challenges, and be sure to look for your name among the prize-winners!! But what will you be observing this spring, you ask? Step into my office...
We’ve developed some unique themes for every week, geared to push your skills of biological observation to the limit. Ready your camera-app-button-pressing fingers, y’all: here are your first two challenges:
Week One! (April 1-6): Observation Participation
Participation: Anyone who posts an observation (photograph or audio) to our webpage will receive a sticker and a letter—in the mail, no less— from yours truly.
Pollination: Make at least 10 observations of birds or insects during this week to receive a automatic entry to the Fall 2019 BioBlitz! Might even have a prize headed your way. Once you have made your observations, message me with a link to the pages.
Those of you with the five most total observations will get a fun little-shout out in our next journal entry. Dare to dream!
And they’re off! Message me with any questions you have going forward, and I hope to see you all in the fields and forests of our great state. If our paths do happen to cross, you’ll have to excuse the elbowing and shoving as I try to get the best camera angle. Rally ho!
