Wales Garden BioBlitz

Wales Garden BioBlitz is an annual event organised by LERC Wales, a consortium of the four Local Environmental Record Centres in Wales.

 

Wales Wide BioBlitz 2022

The 2022 event took place on Saturday 10th September. This year we are stepped outside the garden, and asked people to record wherever they like in Wales.

Nationally, the day resulted in 1455 records of 706 species being submitted by 194 recorders. You can view the full national species list here.

On a local level, we had 51 recorders submit 575 records of 301 species. You can download the SEWBReC species list here.

The below heat map reflects the number of records at different locations (brighter colour = more records).

 The below table shows the national top 10 species by number of records.
