San Diego Audubon is restoring habitat on FAA Island in Mission Bay to promote nesting by the California Least Tern (an endangered bird). We’ll be repairing chick fencing, baling-up plant piles, and more. This is a great opportunity to get out to an island that is otherwise off-limits to the public! (The lifeguards will be ferrying us out there.)
The event is on March 16, 2013 from 9:30 am-12:30 pm. Meet at the public boat ramp at De Anza Cove in Mission Bay. Please arrive at 9:15 so you don’t miss the boat!
Volunteers should wear long pants and sturdy shoes, and sun/rain protection as weather indicates. Work gloves will be provided, but volunteers are encouraged to bring their own pair if available. We’ll have water, but don't forget to bring a reusable water bottle for refills!
Questions/Directions/RSVP: Call or email our Conservation Program Manager, Rebecca Schwartz. schwartz@sandiegoaudubon.org (858) 273-7800 x 101.

Mission Statement
Together we defend our region's birds, unique biodiversity, and threatened habitats through advocacy, education, and restoration.

Description
San Diego Audubon Society (SDAS) is a chapter of the National Audubon Society, an organization founded in 1905 to stop the slaughter of wild birds for their feathers. Originally founded in 1948, SDAS has served the region for over 70 years. We serve a diverse population, with community-based habitat restoration projects, environmental education programs, and recreational offerings in North County, Metro, East County, and South Bay communities. Programs include conservation, education, recreation, and sanctuary operations. SDAS leads the way in fostering knowledge and appreciation of the natural world and seeks to become an even more significant resource for our communities through our education, environmental recreation, and numerous conservation programs.
