This is the nineteenth weekly update by the Audubon Alliance for Coastal Waterbirds (AAfCW) for the 2014 season. Today's update includes reports of Piping Plover, American Oystercatcher, Least Tern and Common Tern from August 4 through 4:00 p.m. on August 11 with sightings of birds by volunteers and staff spanning that period.
Piping Plovers are really on the move out of the state but we still do have some young present that require our continued attention and stewardship. The same can definitely be said for American Oystercatchers, Least Terns and Common Terns and counting adults of all these species is important as well so that we can get good data on their staging sites. Any details on how many juveniles are seen in these groups is very helpful. We will soon have dates from DEEP looking for assistance in removing fencing and signage at Long Beach, Sandy/Morse Points and Harkness Memorial State Park. We would have them set now but the timing depends on the birds and we will let you know as soon as possible.
