Friends of Haystack Rock and the Cannon Beach Library present “Snowy Plover Monitoring on the Northern Oregon Coast: A Community Science Perspective.”

The lecture, live at the Cannon Beach Library or via Facebook Live, takes place Dec. 14 at 7 p.m. and is part of the World of Haystack Rock Library Lecture Series 2022-2023, recurring lectures with different speakers and topics. Lectures are held on the second Wednesday of every month from November to April.

Allison Anholt, the coastal community science biologist for Portland Audubon, will cover the current status of snowy plovers on the Oregon Coast, why they are at risk across their range and the current and future efforts to monitor and protect these birds as they recolonize their historic range on Oregon’s North Coast.

The library is located at 131 S. Hemlock in Cannon Beach.
