¿Qué harías si tu destino usual de verano desapareciera? Los animales migratorios alrededor del mundo están enfrentando este problema, ya que sus hábitats de clima cálido desaparecen. Los niveles del mar elevados complican este problema, y las islas pequeñas desaparecen. Este libro es sobre un programa de hábitat artificial impulsado entre el Maryland Coastal Bays Program (MCBP), el Wildlife and Heritage Service del Department of Natural Resources (DNR) de Maryland, y Audubon Mid-Atlantic luego de que se erosionara la isla de anidación de los charranes comunes. Se diseñó una isla flotante de 48 pies cuadrados para dar a las aves un lugar tranquilo en contra de molestias, inundaciones y depredadores. Está hecha de secciones que se ensamblaron, aseguraron y anclaron cerca de la isla antigua de los charranes en la temporada de anidación. ¿Los charranes regresarán con la isla desaparecida y la nueva isla flotante en su lugar?
