2010 Beach-nesting Bird Season- Current Maps

In response to the Deep Horizon Oil Spill, we are urging partners to survey all historic shorebird and seabird sites, and get this data entered into FWC's Beach-nesting Bird Database as soon as possible. We are working closely with the oil spill Incident Command Center (ICC) to ensure they have the most current information regarding our must sensitive coastal wildlife resources- including active nests and colonies of shorebirds and seabirds.

How we can help:

1. If you have sites that you do not have the time or resources to survey and monitor, please contact Chris Burney (chris.burney@myfwc.com).

2. If you need help getting data entered into the BNB database, please contact Chris Burney (chris.burney@myfwc.com). We have volunteers willing to assist with data entry, and will take your data in any format.

May 11, 2010

The following maps plot observations that are currently (as of May 11) in FWC's Beach-nesting Bird Database. These maps are not comprehensive- we are still missing data from numerous sites in Florida. Monitors, please review the maps to ensure your data is included and in the correct location.

Click on the species images below to view maps. No records yet for Caspian Tern, Sandwich Tern, and Roseate Tern.

May 25, 2010

A lot of data has been entered into FWC's Beach-nesting Bird Database since May 11, 2010. We are still missing data from some key areas so again, these maps are not comprehensive. With the added data, Google maps for certain species, particularly Snowy Plover and Least Tern, open and run slowly. For quicker navigation, download the .KMZ files and open in Google Earth.

Please review your observations and make sure your data is correctly mapped. Contact Chris Burney (chris.burney@myfwc.com) is changes need to be made.

Final Maps for 2010 BNB Season

Please get your data entered into the BNB database as soon as possible, and if you need assistance getting it entered, contact Chris Burney (chris.burney@myfwc.com). Once we have the complete dataset, we will create final maps for the 2010 BNB Season.
