Protect Threatened Shorebirds! Upcoming Training for Snowy Plover Docents

Snowy Plover breeding season is here and Coal Oil Point Reserve is training new docents.

The next training for Snowy Plover Docent volunteers is on Saturday, June 8th at 10:00 am.

Coal Oil Point Reserve is the first place to restore a nesting site that had previously been abandoned by the threatened Western Snowy Plover species. Our docents play a HUGE role in this success by educating the public about Snowy Plovers and ensuring that the protected areas are free from trespassing, off-leash dogs, and predators.

Time commitment for volunteers is 2 hours per week and scheduling is flexible. RSVP is required.

To sign up for the training, please email copr.conservation@nrs.ucsb.edu
