Information
As the 2026 nesting season comes to an end, join coastal biologist Lindsay Addison to see how our coastal birds fared this year.
In this hour-long webinar, you’ll hear from Lindsay about how the nesting played out at Audubon’s sanctuaries and learn about some of the longer-term projects we’re working on this year. From tagging Royal and Sandwich Terns with GPS transmitters to banding chicks, you won’t want to miss this end of season recap!
The hidden life of coastal nesting birds plays out not far from North Carolina’s busiest beaches every spring and summer. Golf-ball sized chicks hatch on the bare sand, vulnerable and dependent on their parents. Thousands of terns return to the same tiny, eroding islands to nest. Raucous gatherings of pelicans rear chicks at remote colonies. Few people know these birds better than Lindsay Addison, Audubon’s coastal biologist.
