Work on St. Paul continued for a few days after Seabird Camp.
Our intern, Diamond, joined USFWS crew to capture Least Auklets and collect the food they are bringing back to their chicks in the colony. This was the second of three collection sessions that the wildlife refuge does each summer. Here’s a photo of Diamond weighing a collected zooplankton food sample.
And, Garbie the Trashbird installed in her new home just inside the front door of the St. Paul Tribal Government offices. A very visible place indeed! The “Seabird Youth Network” sticker on her leg serves as a bracelet.
