Pigeon Guillemot Survey (Part 2)

Brenda Johnson is the leader of the East Jefferson Pigeon Guillemot Breeding Survey which is part of the Salish Sea Guillemot Network. The network is a community science project that monitors breeding colonies across our region to understand their role in healthy coastal ecosystems. Join Jackie Canterbury as she discusses the project with Dr. Brenda Johnson and volunteer Karin Ertl, who both make this project happen in the field. Both guests provide a portrait of the pigeon guillemot, a fascinating seabird that shares both our land and water ecosystems (part 2 of a two-part program). (Airdate: August 16, 2023)
