On April 27, we were able to make it to Bird Island to view the nesting boxes that have been set up by the state for the soon-to-arrive terns, which rely on this island as a safe spot to raise their young. The students also had a chance to climb to the top of the lighthouse to view the bay. Photos courtesy of Elizabeth Leidhold
