Discover Life in America hold BioBlitz event on Tellico Lake
GATLINBURG â Smokies nonprofit, Discover Life in America (DLiA), invites the community to participate in its 12th BioBlitz in partnership with Tennessee Valley Authority at Tellico Lake on July 31.
The free, family-friendly event serves as an opportunity for individuals to learn from local scientists about the various species found at TVA public sites while also contributing to science. Participants will work in small groups to survey the East Lakeshore Trail from 8 a.m. â 12 p.m. Later, they will post photos of the organisms they have found to the community science platform iNaturalist, building a list of area species that can be viewed and contributed to later.
