FALMOUTH Western Maine Audubon is presenting a free online webinar for the general public on Wednesday, April 14th at 7:00 pm. The webinar is titled “Saving Seabirds: New Lessons from Puffins,” with Dr. Stephen Kress.
About one third of all seabird species worldwide are now globally threatened because of the effects of invasive predatory mammals, marine pollution, coastal development, and climate change. Against this grim background, Dr. Kress’s presentation about the restoration of Maine seabirds offers hope and inspiration that people have the capacity to help bring seabirds back to some of their historic nesting places, as well as the capacity to be better stewards of nesting islands and the essential forage fish which seabirds require. The methods used to bring puffins and terns back to Maine islands are now being used worldwide and Dr. Kress will share a few of these exciting restoration projects.
