JOIN US JANUARY 6TH AT 6:30PM FOR OUR MONTHLY COMMUNITY MEETING.

Roy Lowe and other local volunteers have been documenting the return of the threatened western snowy plover to Lincoln County beaches and also monitoring the declining wintering population of black brant at Yaquina Bay.  Roy will show photographs and discuss some of the results of their monitoring efforts and include some interesting information on the travels and origin of some of the marked birds they are observing.  He will also show some photos of other species of birds you can expect to see along the beaches or in the bay.

Roy Lowe is a photographer and resident of Waldport, Oregon.  He was employed with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for more than 37 years and was the Project Leader for the Oregon Coast National Wildlife Refuge Complex upon his retirement in 2015.

Unfortunately we did not record Roy’s talk to the council, but below is a very similar talk he gave to Hatfield Marine Science Center.
