During the western snowy plover breeding season, park docents help monitor and protect nesting sites and help create awareness and educate visitors about this threatened species and its life cycle. Visitors have expressed interest in the plovers and are pleased to have staff and docents in the field answering all types of naturalist questions. Through the summer, park staff create updates to let staff, volunteers, and visitors know the latest on what is happening out at the nesting sites. Click on one of the images below to find out how the snowy plovers at Point Reyes were doing during a given year. Updates are usually published from late May or early June through early September of each year. To learn more about becoming a Snowy Plover Docent, please visit our Volunteer page.
