Thank you!

Thank you so much to everyone who participated in the BioBlitz! At the risk of forgetting someone (there were a few people whose names I did not catch, sorry!), special thanks go out to Josée, Molly, Joan, Kali, Rolando, Dillon, Richard, Xander, Danielle, Phil, Andy, Andony, Jamie, Iria, Sativa, Brenda, Dianna, Matt and of course Luciana, for helping with organisation, leading workshops and other activities, finding and identifying species, making art, providing materials and everything else that went into making the day a success. We're grateful to the Forest Biodiversity Research Network and Student Sustainability Initiative at OSU for financial support, and the OSU arthropod collection for logistical support.

You can see our observations here: http://www.inaturalist.org/observations?project_id=11714&place_id=any&verifiable=any&captive=any

Or, for only observations with photos: http://www.inaturalist.org/observations?captive=any&place_id=any&project_id=11714&subview=grid

We still have some observations to come in, including birds which were primarily recorded using eBird. I will post an update later when we are closer to a complete species list for the day, but it will certainly be more than 200 species in all. Well done to everyone, and please continue to add and upload any observations that are not yet in the project. If you can help to identify existing observations, that will also be very welcome.
