Bird monitoring at Wheeland Pond

On December 6th, staff of TCNT and DECR, spent the day monitoring birds at Wheeland Pond wetlands. As part of the Darwin+ funded “Restoring and Safeguarding the Wetlands of the Caribbean” both organizations are tasked with counting and monitoring trends in our bird populations, resident and migratory.

Spotted birds were Black-necked stilt, white-cheeked pintail, common ground dove, northern mockingbird, spotted sandpiper, green heron, little blue heron – all frolicking at Wheeland Pond.

We must protect our environment, our wildlife, our wetlands, our heritage.
