Below are the results of our weekly shorebird/gull survey conducted at
Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge on Sat. Jan. 25, 2014. All water areas
(impoundments and beach areas) were covered in a 4.5 hour survey. All
individuals are counted for the target species; other birds seen or heard on
the survey are followed by a dash.
