bit.ly/1rWdJbK Do you know what a bioblitz is? Its when scientists and volunteers descend upon a defined area and spend 24 hours combing it to identify every organism they can find. The Onondaga Lake Bioblitz begins in two days, 3 pm Friday at the Onondaga Lake Visitors Center on the lakes western shore. Specifically requested by Dr. Wheeler, its one of the events commemorating his inauguration as president of SUNY-ESF, but more importantly it is also a survey of the lakes ecosystem and how its recovering after years of environmental remediation. Onondaga Lake and the surrounding area is one of the most interesting landscapes in Upstate New York, says Don Leopold. Given some of the exciting things we are seeing lately, its time to take that snapshot.
