Terns. These birds begin to arrive on the beaches in April. Their nesting and fledging seasons extend into the summer months. While most often found at Wells Beach, the beaches at Drakes Island and Moody must also be checked. In the beginning, there was a threat of beach closure to ensure the safety of these species. Instead, Town officials proposed a monitoring program which would keep the beaches open for use while protecting the birds through oversight and education of beach-goers. This program has been very successful. From the outset, no birds have been lost due to human ac-
tivity. To maintain this success, volunteers and people who are willing to commit to walk the beach on a regular basis at least once a week are needed. From the middle of April through May, their task is to identify and count the birds, and locate their nests so that they can be protected by fencing. From late May through mid-August, volunteers check the nests, report the location of chicks, and simply make people on the beach aware of the birds and of the simple do’s and don’ts of protecting them. This is a process of educating through conversation, not one of enforcement. Training is provided to all volunteers as well as identifica-
WS
tion and parking at the beach. Reporting is a simple process. If you enjoy walking the beach and are willing to assist with this program, you can set your own schedule as to which day and approximate time. Ideally, there would be someone at the beach every day. You can volunteer for a month or for the season, for a morning or afternoon walk, alone or with a friend. For more information, contact Mitzi Baron, volunteer coordinator at Town Hall, 208 Sanford Rd Wells or on the web at www.wellstown.org under Volunteers. Volunteers are needed from mid-April through September.
