Puget Sound Seabird Surveys

Pilchuck Audubon Society’s April Program Meeting will be a presentation by Jennifer Lang of Seattle Audubon on
“Puget Sound Seabird Surveys”, who will share her stories of the last 10 years.

With the help of over 200 dedicated citizen scientists braving the Pacific Northwest winter, Puget Sound Seabird Surveys have been conducted at 122 waterfront sites regularly on the first Saturdays of the month from October to April. Volunteers diligently identify, count, and collect data on seabirds in nearshore habitats to help us learn more about seabird hotspots, both for birding and for conservation. Join Jennifer as she talks about some interesting stories and birds that she has seen over the decade of this citizen science program.
