IBET and BCNnet friends:
=20
September 18th is fast approaching and this is a reminder of the =
scheduled
workday at the Great Lakes Naval Training Center from 9 AM until noon. =
The
area of the marina where we have worked for the past several years =
continues
to be the only site in Illinois where the state endangered COMMON TERNS
successfully nest. This year a new and enlarged fenced area allowed the
birds to raise and fledge more than 30 young, but unusually high water
levels prevented the use of even more habitat for nest sites. Thus our =
aim
is to create additional high ground and hopefully as much as double the
site=92s productivity. Your help is eagerly sought so please let me =
know if
you can give us a hand that morning. =20
=20
We will arrange for a central pick-up spot at a nearby shopping center, =
but
if you want to drive onto the base yourself please provide your name and
address, and specific vehicle information (i.e. make, model, year, color =
&
license plate #). Be sure to have your current registration, proof of
insurance and driver=92s license with you. =20
=20
For those not driving we will meet at 8:45 at the southeast corner of =
the
parking lot of the Navy Commissary shopping Center for shuttling the =
short
distance to the base. The shopping center is located on Green Bay Road,
about =BC mile north of Rte 137 (Buckley Rd). We will leave Great Lakes =
no
later than 11:45 AM to get everyone back to their cars before noon. If =
any
of you has a pass to the base and are willing to take a few passengers,
please let me know.
=20
Binoculars are recommended as we could be seeing shorebirds and possibly
some rarities. If it=92s a cool day a light jacket might be helpful =
and
don=92t forget a hat, sunscreen and sunglasses. Part of our effort is
participation in Lake Michigan Coastal Cleanup day so if you have it =
bring
one of those large plastic garbage bags. Water and snacks will be =
provided.

Thanks in advance for you assistance,
=20
Regards,
=20
