Issues Papers
*NOTE: In January 2020, the name of our partnership was changed from the Wisconsin Bird Conservation Initiative (WBCI) to the Wisconsin Bird Conservation Partnership (WBCP).

Download a pdf of the WBCP Shorebird Conservation Poster. Display this poster on park bulletin boards and other strategic locations near shorebird habitat to help inform park patrons of how they can help nesting and resting shorebirds. If you do download the poster, please send an e-mail to Scott Diehl to let him know who you are and where you will be displaying the poster. Thanks!
