Program Highlight:
Shoreline Sentinels of Great Salt Lake is a 17-minute film about Snowy Plovers—smallshorebirds that nest throughout the busy recreation season on the shores of Great Salt Lake—and the people working to help them. Great Salt Lake is home to the largest non-coastalbreeding population of western Snowy Plovers, but their nesting area overlaps with the mostheavily used part of the lake. Shoreline Sentinels follows National Audubon Society and TracyAviary staff and volunteers as they study how recreation impacts the birds and calls attention toa species that most people don’t even realize exists at Great Salt Lake.
