The Great Southern Bioblitz (GSB) returns from 27–30 November, bringing people together across the Southern Hemisphere to document the natural world! 🦎🦉🌸

What & Why 🍃
The GSB turns everyday snapshots into valuable scientific data. Every photo uploaded feeds directly into national conservation databases with SANBI, helping track species distributions and protect our unique ecosystems. 🐜🍄

With its rich mix of Fynbos, indigenous trees, birdlife, and hidden critters, the Garden Route Botanical Garden offers a species-rich backdrop to wander with your camera and make your observations count. 🌼🐦🌱

How to Take Part (It's Super Easy!) ✨
📲 Download: Get the free iNaturalist app (iOS/Android) and create an account.

📸 Snap: Take photos of any wild plants 🌺, insects 🐝, birds 🦅, or fungi 🍄 you spot along the trails between 27 and 30 November.

📤 Upload: Share your photos on the app!

💡 No expert knowledge needed: You don't need to know any species names! Built-in AI and a global network of naturalists will identify what you find. 🔍

📲 Download iNaturalist, enjoy a walk through the Garden, and turn everyday sightings into real science! 🌿🌾🐞
