To arrange field trips for school or other groups, contact the education program at 684-699-3982. These are relatively easy to arrange on Tutuila, but require advance planning for trips on the Manu'a Islands.

Pacific golden plover in breeding plumage—soon to be flying 5,500 miles to the Alaskan Arctic

Did You Know?
During northern summers, three shorebirds--plover, turnstone, and tattler--nest in Alaska and northern Canada. After nesting, they fly non-stop over 3,000 miles of open ocean to Hawaii. After briefly resting there, they fly more thousands of miles to Samoa. The round-trip is 11,000 miles.
