BioBlitz: Bickham-Rudkin Park

September 01, 2026 - September 30, 2026
Edmond Urban Forestry is hosting a virtual BioBlitz this September as part of a nationwide Parks for Pollinators initiative by the National Recreation and Park Association.
For a whole month, community members can help create a snapshot of the variety of wildlife that can be found in Bickham-Rudkin Park. We use a no-cost app called iNaturalist to take pictures of plants, insects and animals to see what wildlife is present in the park during this month.
We also have several opportunities to get involved during this BioBlitz event. More details for each event is available through the main event listing:
