Wildlife Volunteers: Colony Caretakers
About
HAYWARD REGIONAL SHORELINE - An exciting adventure over land and water to help create nesting habitat for the endangered California Least Tern, Western Snowy Plover and Black Skimmer awaits you. You will add new nesting substrate, remove tern decoys, repaint all island marker grids and pull weeds while exploring the new chick protection fence deign up-close. By participating, you’ll earn your “Colony Caretakers” patch. Physical labor is involved with this project. All ages welcome; parent/guardian participation is required. We recommend the following personal protective items: outdoor clothing (long pants), hiking boots/waterproof (closed-toe footwear), gloves, hats, water, and sunscreen.
