The Western Snowy Plover is a small shorebird native to the western coastal areas of the United States. Volunteering with organizations like California State Parks can involve monitoring populations, surveying nesting areas, and educating people about these birds. These birds may be the smallest, cutest birds on our beaches! #ShareTheShore
