For many years, there was very little research occurring in our region, which was very distressing to me. But, there was one research group working hard to understand the South Bay and educate people about its beauty\u2014and that group was SFBBO! I naturally gravitated to SFBBO and learned about SFBBO\u2019s many great programs including the\u00a0<span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\"><a href=\"\/staging\/1924\/colonial-waterbird-monitoring\/\" target=\"_blank\">colonial waterbird<\/a><\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0<span style=\"color:rgb(0, 0, 0)\"><a href=\"\/staging\/1924\/adpp\/\" target=\"_blank\">avian disease<\/a><\/span>\u00a0programs, both of which continue today.\u00a0<\/span><br\/><br\/><span>Another aspect of SFBBO that I have always thought was amazing is the\u00a0<\/span><span><a href=\"\/staging\/1924\/ccfs\/\" target=\"_blank\">Coyote Creek Field Station<\/a><\/span><span>, a long-term bird banding station in Milpitas that is providing critical information on how resident and migrating birds are doing. As a professor at San Jos\u00e9 State University, I have brought my students to the field station, had them do research on the restoration of the habitat, and have graduate students who wrote master\u2019 theses using bird banding data from the field station.\u00a0<\/span><\/div> <hr style=\"width:100%;clear:both;visibility:hidden\"\/>\n\n<!--more-->\n\n  <div class=\"paragraph\"><span>Today, the bird banding station\u2014while providing valuable data on how birds are doing in our changing world\u2014is also part of a large-scale education project called SOAR that will bring hundreds of college students out to the field station and into the world of birds.<\/span><br\/><br\/><span><span>While for many years my connections with SFBBO were research and education-based, a few years ago I realized I needed to do more for SFBBO&#8211;and so I became a board member. This is a volunteer position in which board members work to support our programs and the fiscal health of the organization. I love being on the Board (I\u2019m in my third term!) because this position allows me to help with all aspects of SFBBO\u2019s mission \u2013 research, education and outreach.
