Of all the billions of things that keep wildlife rehabilitators from sleeping at night, public releases are one of the big ones.

After experiencing the Rachel Carson Commemorative in Duxbury, MA, she was moved to share some little-known facts about this tremendously influential nature writer’s interest in birds… I was thirteen when my mother and I took turns reading aloud the new bestseller, Silent Spring , on family vacation the summer of 1963.

Filming the plovers of Estero Lagoon Plovers are a significant part of the shorebird family, comprising 66 species worldwide.

And when two of those eyes are professionally trained for wildlife monitoring, that is certainly a big plus. The same can be said, to a lesser extent, for the shorebirds, New World sparrows, warblers, and many other families.

It is a popular event with the locals and the foreigners alike, where you pay for the drinks and salads, while the main dish, well prepared lake fish, is free.
