DESCRIPTION:Right now on our local beaches male snowy plovers are guarding tiny 
 hatchlings, distracting predators to protect their flightless chicks. Even 
 regular beachgoers may never notice these birds, but daily their miniature 
 dramas unfold just above the tideline.\n\nElkhorn Slough is home to one of 
 the Central Coast’s most robust populations of Western snowy plovers, a 
 federally threatened species. Come learn more about these fascinating 
 creatures and get the hang of spotting them in the field. Biologists will 
 be on hand with scopes for a window into the secret lives of 
 “snowies.”\n\nKriss Neuman is a wildlife biologist for Point Blue 
 Conservation Science. She promotes the recovery of the federally threatened 
 Western snowy plover by monitoring nesting biology, tracking populations, 
 and improving management of this incredible species.\n\nFee: Suggested 
 donation $5\n\nRain or shine. Please dress appropriately for the outdoors. 
 Snacks will be provided.\n\nREGISTER HERE:
