Capturing birds and banding them with a unique identifier gives biologists insight into the health and demographics of our island's
bird population. Important information on the productivity, survivorship, and movements of many species can be attained through
a banding program. The Town of Kiawah has initiated several projects that use banding as the primary tool to study
populations of different birds.
Fall Migration Monitoring
Winter Banding
Painted Bunting Banding
Spring Migration Monitoring
Eastern Bluebird Nestlings
Eastern Screech-Owl Banding
