Oil Spill?

Hey I heard on NPR this morning that there was an oil spill in SF Bay...and birds were washing up all along the coast covered in oil! News please!!! Are most of the birds okay, what role is PRBO playing?

58k of bunker grade oil. As of right now, well over 2000 birds (live and dead) have been sent to the processing center. PRBO has the important role of taking the data that could be used for evidence. Diana H. and Chris Abraham are leading this effort. Around Bolinas, several of us are surveying the beaches and collecting live and dead birds. Bad news . . . Check out PRBO's home page for more info.

So sorry to hear about all that. It seems we still haven't learned this lesson.
