Tribe Stewardship

PlPlease HELP remove the painted red rock Grafitti from South Beach, Fishers Island-Make the Message “Clear” For Island Stewardship!

A special thanks to Mason Horn, who provided the wire rock cage for collection and my Tribe at school for creating the laminated sign, and to Jim Ski who has offered to crush the rocks.

I sat in an unobtrusive spot on South Beach for just a few minutes to get this “snippet”…

This is the “alert” call of a nesting Killdeer.

*Please keep all dogs on leash these weeks.

*Please help support our Island and save critical and delicate shore bird habitat-Keep all vehicles off the Beach.

Seeking Refuge and Critical Habitat

I have resolved to thinking of Fishers Island as a National Maritime Refuge-and I am allowed that thought. It has nothing to do with old traditions, signs, or boundaries-just being aware and grateful of the unique habitat we have here on Island.

My hope is that others see the Island as a refuge for the remaining shorebird species that return here; after a long arduous journey- seeking sanctuary.

**Please take into consideration the damage vehicles can impact on our delicate coast line.
