Matthew McKown records a bird vocalizing from inside a nesting burrow. These data were used in his Ph.D. research that focused on ways to use vocal behaviors to assess the status and trends of threatened seabird species.

Educational resources
and opportunities


Educational resources focused on the Pink-footed Shearwater will be posted as they are developed. If you have ideas for educational resources, please contact Peter Hodum (peter [at] oikonos [dot] org).

Given their trans-hemispheric movements, Pink-footed Shearwaters can serve as a powerful link between communities and schools in Chile and North America. Exciting opportunities exist to develop inter-cultural exchange programs using the shearwater as a bridge between the hemispheres. Please contact Peter Hodum (peter [at] oikonos [dot] org) if you are interested in discussing such possibilities.
