Black Skimmer Colony Week 3 Review

12 days ago

It's the night of the Strawberry Moon and the Black Skimmer eggs have been hatching for 21 days (3 weeks) and we have a lot of babies. The oldest fledglings are showing signs of a growing tail and should be able to fly soon. There are adults still mating, scrapes with eggs, and a few downy chicks. However, I am worried about the Gulls damage they are doing to the overall chick population.
