Live, Electronic Field Trip
March 22, 2007 ~ Bay of Santa Maria, Mexico, Webcast
Students in grades 5-8 are invited to join millions of migrating shorebirds at the Bay of Santa Maria in Mexico, for a Web cast and satellite broadcast as part of "Migration Science and Mystery." This project takes participants on a journey totaling more than 6,500 miles from Panama to Alaska with stopovers in between. The free program will be live, and wildlife biologists will be on site to talk about migration and answer questions.
