Next Meeting: Thursday, May 24, 2018 at 7:00PM at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library
Piping Plovers
Kathleen Shepherd, a Fisheries and Wildlife Sciences student, will give a program on Piping Plover. The presentation will start with an introduction to Piping plover identification, behaviors, and habitat. She will then explore why they are a species of concern, and what has led them to be listed as an endangered species both federally and statewide. Kathleen will also talk about methods of management and conservation, including what we can do as private citizens to increase their chances of survival.
The Mattapoisett Free Public Library is located at 7 Barstow Street and is handicapped accessible. The program is free and open to the public.
