Description

My study looked to see if shorebirds had a preference of foraging habitat based on how secluded the habitat is. I had 3 sites for data collection that varied in seclusion levels which were high, moderate, and low seclusion. The time of day for data collection was determined by the tide and was kept consistent throughout the whole study. This study was conducted locally at the Arcata Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary during the current spring semester of 2026. Data collection was collected by identifying and counting each individual for each species at one site for 10-15 minutes at each site.
