Knowsley Safari inviting public to a 'nature scavenger hunt' to help protect future of the Mersey Estuary
There is no requirement to book, and the fun event will see participants become:- ‘nature detectives’ during an interactive team effort to spot as many creatures as possible in and around the Mersey Estuary, from:- bugs and birds, to plants and mammal species. Knowsley Safari and Mersey Gateway Environmental Trust experts will be providing advice and tips during the BioBlitz, including:- how to record wildlife sightings using iNaturalist; an app that enables millions of conservation-keen people around the world to identify and log native plants and animals. Phil Blackburn, Conservation Engagement Coordinator, Knowsley Safari, says:- “The Bioblitz is a fun and educational way to gain insight into the wildlife on our doorstep. Adults and children alike will enjoy this real scientific experiment, where findings are analysed by conservation experts. We hope as many people as possible come and share the experience of this environmental scavenger hunt while connecting with nature.” Stephanie Harrison, Conservation Officer, Mersey Gateway Environmental Trust, says:- “The Mersey Estuary is a biodiversity hotspot, rich with native wildlife. Whilst it’s important we preserve the natural environment of this special landscape for future generations, we should also have fun, spending time outside and learning new things. The Bioblitz means we can do all those things.” For further information please visit:- MGET.Org.UK and follow the Mersey Gateway Environmental Trust on social media using:- @mgenvtrust.
