WUNC Pine Island Center Director Robbie Fearn plays bird call recordings at one of the survey points on the Pine Island Reserve.
It was overcast and windy on a late afternoon in late May. Robbie Fearn, Cat Bowler, and their team slipped in to their waders to prepare to head in to the marsh by Currituck Sound. It felt warm cloaked in the neoprene waders inside the lodge, but the cool ocean air made for just the right temperature outside.
Before heading out, Fearn, who directs of the Audubon North Carolina Pine Island Sanctuary, pulled up a map of the reserve s 2,600 acres and pointed to where they would be heading.
