IMG_6427.JPGThe clock has just struck 12, which means we are halfway through our 24-hour species inventory. The action has slowed down a little here at the park--but not much. Scientists are still identifying finds, a new crowd of BioBlitzers has arrived for a midnight Owl Prowl through Rock Creek Park, and some folks are enjoying a bonfire complete with marshmallows for roasting.
