While World Shorebirds Day is Friday, September 6th, 2019, this year’s Global Shorebird Count will take place from September 3 through 9, 2019. All across the Caribbean, birders will be compiling checklists from island to island and recording them on eBird Caribbean. Our migratory shorebirds are more vulnerable than ever, threatened by human activities that have changed their habitat. Most species of shorebirds are in decline around the world.
