Biodiversity Blitz 2023

During September 2023, Frankston City Council is celebrating Biodiversity Month by partnering with our neighbouring councils to hold the Biodiversity Blitz 2023! We are running a competition between local councils on who can record the most species. Participating is easy! Join this project then from the 1st - 30th of September 2023 head outdoors to snap photos of flora and fauna in the Frankston area and upload them to iNaturalist. Your observations will automatically be added to this project. You'll be contributing to community science and showing the world the amazing biodiversity Frankston city has to offer as well as learning more about your local wildlife and flora!

Events

To complement the Bio-blitz 2023, Councils Environment team has put together a series of events and workshops based around biodiversity within Frankston city, and the use of the inaturalist platform to contribute to citizen science! Check out the listings and sign yourself up for everything that interests you, they are all free!
