Skimmers, Least Terns, and Oystercatchers are arriving!

When one of our WB Bird Stewards was on the beach this morning (April 18), he was surprised by how many birds are already there.  Besides the previously observed Least Terns and Oystercatchers about 20 Black Skimmers were in the posting area.  The Skimmers were seen by the water but may be nesting out of sight behind the first row of dunes.  In addition several Royal Terns made an appearance.

Thanks to Don Ellson for sharing these photos!





 Our first "official" Bird Walk is Monday, April 25th. Hope you can join us!
