We have now counted up all the records from our annual BioBlitz! We had 209 records, of which 188 were at the species level. The majority of the finds were plants and insects, including a good number of bryophytes!

Our third Annual BioBlitz at Radley Large Wood last Thursday was a big success - with both students and experts joining us to help record a wide range of species! The weather was also wonderful, with bluebells covering the understory in large patches.
