Southern Ocean Birding Group Meeting - Horseshoe Crabs & Migratory Birds: Life in the Balance

Every Spring, millions of unassuming Atlantic horseshoe crabs, driven by eons of evolution, make their way to the sandy beaches of the Delaware Bay to spawn. We’ll explore the ecological importance of horseshoe crabs and their connection to shorebird migration. Then we’ll discuss how the American Littoral Society monitors horseshoe crab populations and restores vulnerable coastal habitat.
  
This presentation will be by Michelle Rebilas, Director of Education for the American Littoral Society.   The meeting starts at 7PM, but the doors are open for socializing at 6:30.  Join us.
