AAfCW 2024 Field Update #16

This is the sixteenth and final field update for the AAfCW in 2024 with data provided from volunteer monitors spanning August 7 through August 31st. We had a busy end to our season with birds nesting late, other migrating individuals coming through, and disturbances to deal with across Connecticut. 

Some surveys were skipped in the past few weeks due to the heat or rain, and some beaches not shown here were surveyed but only had negative data. Overall, we had a very strong season thanks to you!

Thank you all once again for your monitoring, helping with fencing, educating the public, and all of your efforts throughout 2024. We plan to hold a volunteer thank you party later this fall for everyone who helped us this year, and we will share those details with you soon as they are finalized.

Please submit any and all data and information you have for our season via our electronic form, and keep an eye out for more emails this fall and winter. We will be providing any more details on how you can help remove the final signage and fencing from our shores to some preliminary nesting numbers later on in the season. 

You are more than welcome to share Connecticut eBird checklists with shorebirds, terns, and long-legged waders year-round when you go birding with us via the eBird share function - just use ctwaterbirds@gmail.com, thanks!
