Third Annual Parks for Pollinators BioBlitz

Join the city of Las Vegas for the Third Annual Parks for Pollinators: BioBlitz, to be held Saturday, Sept. 13, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs, 9200 Tule Springs Road.

The Parks for Pollinators BioBlitz is a national campaign sponsored by the National Recreation and Park Association and The Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation. This September, parks throughout the country will be participating in a fun challenge to see how many pollinator species can be documented throughout the month. It is easy for you to participate, too! Simply join our project page, make observations on your own, and upload using the iNaturalist app. With the iNaturalist app, the online community will help identify the species of plant, animal or insect you've observed. By reviewingother observations, you can help make our data "research grade"!

Our main event with exhibitors and STEM activities will be held Sept. 13, but you can participate by exploring the nature and wildlife at Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs all year long!

This information will help us understand our local biodiversity and how we can better protect the plants, pollinators and other important wildlife in our community. Sign up to participate in our Parks for Pollinators BioBlitz now, by creating an account at iNaturalist and joining our iNaturalist project page for 2025.

We currently have more than 750 observations for the year and 600+ that are “Research Grade” material!
