Beached Birds - Camano Island

RSVP to coasst@uw.edu. Just say you are coming to the Camano Island training!

Join the Coastal Observation and Seabird Survey Team (COASST)and help make a difference for the environment! COASST participants collect data on beach-cast carcasses of marine birds on a monthly basis to establish the baseline pattern of bird mortality on North Pacific beaches. Data collected helps address important marine conservation issues and protect marine resources. No prior scientific experience is needed.

Beach surveys are best (and most fun) when conducted in groups of 2 or more— so it is recommended (but not required) to come with a survey partner in mind or in tow! The training is free, but we do ask for a $31 refundable survey kit deposit to take thematerials home. Scholarships available
