Shorebird Survey September 9

On Wednesday, September 9, Breanna Ondich, Meghan Davis and I headed out to do Jekyll Island International Shorebird Survey. We choose to do this four main beach survey in the evening.

Before I go on about the survey, I want to introduce Breanna.  She is Jekyll Island's new Park Ranger. The job is three jobs in one title. She will be doing in beach patrols, helping with the wildlife research, and developing environmental educational programs.



Back to our survey. Here is the form that we used.

                                                                                                                                                             

















Least Sandpipers and lots of Sanderlings were our shorebirds.


There were lots of waterbirds.

  We finished as the sun was setting.

This is perfect way to end the day.
