Mass. Beach Area Closed to People

November 28, 2007 on 2:46 pm | In Endangered |

Another Big City Bird story. Well this one is good news! On busy Revere Beach near Revere Mass two endangered Atlantic piping plovers were caught nesting last summer. These birds were down to 722 nesting pairs and conservation efforts seems to be paying off. Often the conservation efforts include shutting down beaches like this Revere Beach or at least part of it to accommodate the birds. Good work!
