McKinney National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) Manager Bill Kolodnicki. and NWR staff Kevin Allen. Jennifer Brown, Patrick Comins, and Deb Trantor visited Falkner Island on 2~ April (4-20) to assess the overwinter damage and survey the island for waterfowl nests. They also boated past Goose Island where they saw both a Harbor Seal and a Gray Seal. Falkner Island Tern Project (FITP) Director Jeff Spendelow and PWRC Biological Technician Peter Osenton arrived in Guilford on 4-26, but didn't make it out until the next day to begin pre-season preparations, put a new line across the harbor, clear net lanes, and set up some nets. UMass/Amherst M.Sc. student Corey Grinnell joined us that night. The next morning we did some banding, set up the 2m-X-2m grid on the north end gravel spit, _remarked the baseline for the beach plots~ finished taking tires and nestboxes out of storage, and placed the boxes on the beach for the habitat enhancement project. Bill Kolodnicki, Kevin Allen and Pam Denmon brought five volunteers out on 4-29 to help move the tires to the spit, set them in place. and load them with gravel, and Jeff,,-Peter. and Corey flagged the top plots that evening. A calm dawn allowed some netting, but increasing winds on 4-30 forced our departure before finishing the nestboxes and beach plot system.
