Early fog lifts to reveal wetlands newly connected to the Bay. Birds returned within days; now they thrive. Egrets strut. Shorebirds of many species wade in the wetlands, coexisting in the same ecosystem due to different leg, beak, foraging depths, and foraging strategies. They gather in large mixed flocks and take to the air as well.
Save the Bay hosted this morning walk. It was founded in 1961 by three women galvanized by extreme plans to fill in most of the Bay by 2020. Check out their history of impressive accomplishments: <savesfbay.org/our-impact/>. Today they work with partners in government and the private sector to preserve and protect the Bay and its surroundings, through a variety of means. We saw the “horizontal levee” project by Save the Bay, Ducks Unlimited, and governmental organizations at many levels. Shorebirds love it!
