Latest News2019 Bird Counts - 65 Godwits return to Colville Bay
More than double the number of godwits were counted in Colville this November, compared to last spring. We cannot say that the population is increasing with only 2 years of data, but it is a hopeful sign. We will continue to do bird counts twice a year to keep track of the godwit and other bird populations in Colville. It is interesting that the number of cockles we measured in our MM2 transects also doubled in the same time period. Cockles are a food source for godwits. Bird counts also showed we still have fern bird, banded rail and bittern around Colville.
