Christine Thomas: Battling to save the saltmarsh sparrow

Published: , in Outdoor News

“The researchers at the marsh have just captured two fledgling saltmarsh sparrows,” Dr. Karen Waldrop, Ducks Unlimited (DU) chief conservation officer shared via the public address system on the bus. “We need you to file quickly, but safely, off the bus and onto the marsh. If we can do this by the time the students finish their measurements, we will get to see the birds before they release them.”
I volunteer as senior vice-president for conservation for DU. This means I chair the DU Conservation Programs Committee (CPC).
