  • Thanks for your report, Catherine! As a reminder for future Molt Searches, including an object for scale (like calipers or an upside-down credit card) in your photo helps us make the most of your reports and keep our data quality high. Happy Molt Searching!

    Hi Catherine, I just wanted to also chime in to thank you for the incredibly valuable reports you’ve been submitting. Bringing these protocols to an under-monitored and harder to reach location like Waldron Island is such a great boon to these monitoring efforts, and we so appreciate the time you’ve been taking up there to complete and submit these Searches. It was great to have you at the virtual training and hope to have an opportunity to connect again someday!
