SUMMARY:June 8 BioBlitz in New/North Brunswick
DESCRIPTION:A BioBlitz is an event that focuses on finding and identifying as many species as possible in a specific area over a short period of time. At a BioBlitz\, scientists\, families\, students\, teachers\, and other community members work together to get a snapshot of an area’s biodiversity. \nOn June 8 the LRWP and partners including the Americorps Watershed Ambassadors Program\, New Brunswick Environmental Commission\, North Brunswick Environmental Commission\, and Elmwood Cemetery will host our inaugural BioBlitz of Elmwood Cemetery in North Brunswick! \nElmwood Cemetery is a special forested habitat refuge nestled between the urban New and North Brunswick communities. The Cemetery was established in 1868 as a “Victorian Garden Cemetery” during the rural cemetery movement\, and to this day all of Elmwood’s lanes and paths are lined with evergreens and flowering native trees. Cemetery managers are building on this legacy of careful planning and land protections to secure Arboretum accreditation\, which will allow them to further advance the planting\, study\, and conservation of woody plants and trees in the area. Elmwood is located at 425 Georges Rd\, North Brunswick Township\, NJ 08902. \nOur BioBlitz will run from 5:30AM-2PM and include public talks by expert naturalists about local natural history\, and a chance for the public to work with these experts in an active survey of mammals\, fish\, plants\, insects\, aquatic invertebrates\, birds and fungi. \n5:30AM – Check-in opens\n6:00AM – Birds\n7:00AM – Mammals\n8AM – Plants\n9AM – Aquatic Invertebrates\, Insects\n10AM – Fish\, Fungi\n11:30AM – Procession of Species to Elmwood Office lawn\n12:00PM – Data reports\, lunch\, conversation\n2PM – Wrap up \nOur Expert Scientists: \nAquatic Invertebrates: Von Scully\, Erin Dempsey\, Jen Helminski with NJ Watershed Ambassadors\nBirds: Laurie Gneiding\, NJDEP Ornithologist/Ecologist for Environmentally Sensitive Areas\nFish: Chuck Sedor with NJ Division of Fish & Wildlife\, Bureau of Freshwater Fisheries\nFungi: Randy Hemminghaus and Nancy Addotta with the NJ Mycological Association\nInsects: Trisha Nichols with the Philadelphia Insectarium Butterfly Pavilion\nMammals: Brionna Primiani with NJ Wildlife Services\nPlants/Trees: Michele Bakacs with Middlesex County EARTH Center – Rutgers Cooperative Extension \nPlease register to be part of one of these species teams!
