With over 18 miles of Shoreline, Moosehorn National Wildlife Refuge has vital habitat that plays a larger role in the whole ecosystem. Shorebirds continue to be a seriously threatened group of birds globally, and many shorebird species rely heavily on interconnected networks of wetlands and coastal habitats spread across entire continents and flyways.

These Global Shorebird Counts are not intended to function as formal scientific censuses. Instead, the effort aims to encourage participation in bird monitoring and strengthen awareness of why repeated observation matters.
