Welcome to Wildlife Field Research Week!
Fall surveys will be posted soon, please check back.
2026 Fall WFRW - September 28 - October 3
WFRW is a week-long bioblitz conducted every Spring and Fall on the Cibolo Center for Conservation's Nature Center campus. During this research event, teams of community scientists combine their experience, knowledge, and enthusiasm to survey the Nature Center's current ecological state.
Community science engages people in recording observations of the environment and its many inhabitants. These observations are used to make scientific assessments that inform land management decisions and reveal how human behaviors impact our natural world. New participants are trained in the field by team leaders who provide instruction and guidance on survey methods and data recording.
Master Naturalists, college students, teenagers, parents with young kids, and other nature enthusiasts all participate in this week-long event. Each person brings their own interests, creating a colorful and fun science community where camaraderie and friendships are made that can last a lifetime.
Surveys to be held this season include:
Ants, amphibians, aquatic species, butterflies, dragonflies & damselflies, prairie vegetation photo points, prairie vegetation survey, riparian woody plants, small mammals, reptiles, and water snakes.
