WE HAVE CHICKS!!!!!

Lindsay, Michelle and Marlene conducted a nest census yesterday morning between rain storms, and we have 167 Least Tern Nests and 157 Black Skimmer nests!

They spotted some adorable brand new Least Tern chicks and took pictures to share with you!



Look below for eggs camouflaged by beach debris.

Here is a picture of a Common Tern nest (rear) next to a Black Skimmer nest (front) so that you can see the different styles!

Black Skimmers are still incubating their eggs.
