#BirdReturns is a partnership led by #PointBlue, #TheNatureConservancyCA, and #AudubonCA that incentivizes farmers and wetland managers in California's Central Valley to flood their fields during specific times to create temporary wetland habitat for #migratorybirds.🦉🌎💧🧪🌐

🐣➡️🕊️ Exciting news from the sandy shores of #DangermondPreserve! Two of our recently-hatched Percos Beach #SnowyPlover chicks have officially fledged the nest! A win for this threatened species & a testament to the importance of our ongoing monitoring efforts with #TheNatureConservancyCA. 🌎🦉🧪🌐🦑

Plovers, monitoring…bears? Oh my! 🐾🐻 During a #SnowyPlover survey at #DangermondPreserve, we found fresh black bear tracks! Since 2020, with help from #TheNatureConservancyCA, we’ve monitored plovers and worked to protect this wild, sandy coastline & all the species that call it home. 🌊🌎🌾🦉🧪
