Terminal in New Hampshire to educate osprey watchers

November 25, 2003

STRATHAM, N.H -- Work is under way on a project that will establish a "Watchable Wildlife" site for viewing an osprey nesting platform.

According to an article in Exeter News, the project includes an interpretive trail and kiosk educating the public on the work of the Great Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, which is managed by the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department. The kiosk will offer information about the reserve and protected lands in the Seacoast area.

Dr. Judith Silverberg, Watchable Wildlife coordinator, said in the article, "Educational displays will tell the story of the osprey's return to the area and show the success of Fish and Game's efforts to protect wildlife in the Seacoast region."

The project, expected to be finished by late summer 2004, will be funded through a public-private partnership called Project Osprey, a collaboration of Fish and Game, the Public Service of New Hampshire and the Audubon Society of New Hampshire. The article did not list technology vendors.
