Free Snowy Plover Bird Event at Sitka Sedge State Park
August 17, 2025 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm

Join us at Sitka Sedge to spot the only avian species to exclusively nest directly on the PNW sand dunes! South Sand Lake Spit is a historic nesting site for this threatened shorebird and one of five Snowy Plover Management Areas on Oregon’s north coast. Cara Gates, Bird Alliance of Oregon’s Coastal Community Science Biologist, will guide plover-spotting on the beach and share about this bird’s breeding biology, habitat, and conservation story.
