Cape May National Wildlife Refuge, NJ

The Cape May National Wildlife Refuge is renowned for its spectacular winged migrations. Each year millions of shorebirds, songbirds, and raptors, including the piping plover, least tern, red knot, and Cape May warbler, converge on Cape May National Wildlife Refuge to rest and feed along its shores and wetlands. Thanks to financial support from the Allerton Foundation, the Fund worked on behalf of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to acquire 24 critical acres of coastal marshlands as an addition to the refuge’s Two Mile Beach.
