It's simple. Whatever we do (or don't do) impacts the world we live in.
We're volunteering with Audubon NC as Wrightsville Beach Bird Stewards! It's a great reason to be at the beach and while we're there, I'm able to do a quick 20 minute beach clean up. Watching the birds has given my kids a renewed perspective on helping cleanup the beach-- to protect the birds! This week we got to see 2 oyster catcher chicks!
There are also lots and lots of Black Skimmers that are currently nesting on Wrightsville Beach. I LOVE watching them skim along the surface of the water. (ok, I also love just watching them sit on their nests). Want to see more pictures of the nesting shorebirds at Wrightsville Beach? Check out the WB Bird Stewards blog!
