The U.S. Veterans Administration assumed own- ership of the former Alameda Naval Air Station in November, including 512 acres that will be a permanently-protected home for the tern colony and nearly 200 other bird species. CONTINUED on page 5 Least Tern Bob Lewis/[email protected] is that Golden Gate Audubon is already engaged in ameliorating adverse effects of changing climate on local birds through vital habitat restoration efforts we lead on both sides of the Bay and at local creeks. Wetland, upland, and riparian habitats sustain resiliency for myriad species. Yes, there’s more we can do, but our work is already on course. This is why our Audubon chapter has persisted for 98 years: We have always kept our eyes on the long-term future for “our” birds. Our work of many decades is still so relevant!
