Shorebird Sister Schools is an internet
education program designed for students to track Arctic nesting
shorebirds as they migrate northward to their nesting grounds
in Alaska. Students, teachers, and parents are able to get on
the World Wide Web and access current migration information from
stop-over locations along the Pacific Flyway. Schools can send
their trip information to the Shorebird Sister Schools Coordinator
at e-mail address Heather_Johnson@mail.fws.gov and it
will be posted with the shorebird migration data on the internet.
If you would like to track the shorebirds
along their migration route this spring; need background information
about shorebirds; want activities or field trip tips for your
students; or would like to share gee-whiz facts about shorebirds
with your student; access the world wide web at http://www.fws.gov/~r7enved/sssp.html.
