Rutgers Graduate, Daniel Hernandez, has just returned from several weeks in Tierra Del Fuego, in Southern Chile. The expedition was to survey the Red Knot population that winters there and breeds in the Canadian Arctic. These are the same birds that migrate through New Jersey, stopping to feed on the horseshoe crab eggs in Delaware Bay in the Spring. Visit the expedition site here and see how it went.
