El Regreso de Los Charranes: Cómo Los Científicos Están Salvando a Las Aves de Islas

"What would you do if your usual summer vacation spot vanished? Migratory animals worldwide are facing this issue as their warm-weather habitats disappear. Rising sea levels further complicate this problem as small islands wash away. This book is about an artificial-habitat-program partnership between Maryland Coastal Bays Program (MCBP), Maryland's Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Wildlife and Heritage Program, and Audubon Mid-Atlantic after a Common Terns' nesting island eroded away. A 48-square foot raft island was designed to give the birds a safe place away from disturbances, flooding, and predation. It is made of sections that are assembled, locked together and anchored near the old island for the terns' summer nesting season. With the island gone and a raft to take its place, will the terns return?"--
