Freeman Seabird Preserve Volunteer Days

Freeman Seabird Preserve 2016 Fieldwork Season
Seeking Volunteers for Habitat Restoration!
Held 9 am to Noon Every Saturday Morning from January through March 2016

In November and early December, Wedge-tailed Shearwater adult birds and chicks leave the Freeman Seabird Preserve at Black Point to forage at sea for several months before returning in the latter part of March to nest.
Volunteers are needed for fieldwork at the site on Saturday mornings from 9 am to noon beginning January
17th. Activities will include maintenance of native plants and man-made landscape features, along with removal of
invasive plants, trash and debris. Other dates and times can be arranged for groups wishing to contribute their time in an effort to preserve rare Hawaiian coastal vegetation and seabird nesting habitat.

Please contact the Hawaii Audubon Society office by phone at (808) 528-1432 or e-mail at hiaudsoc@pixi.com in advance if you would like to participate. We will meet each Saturday at Triangle Park near Diamond Head at 8:45am to carpool to the site. Plan on bringing drinking water, sun and rain protection, gloves, weeding tools, clippers and loppers.
