This is the final step for the first of two companion pieces. This series is to help bring attention to the endangered Red Knot. The Red Knot as mentioned is truly an amazing bird with its annual migratory flight, however it's population has dropped significantly due to overfishing of the Horseshoe Crab in the Delaware Bay area. The Red Knot stops at Delaware Bay on its route north to refuel on Horseshoe Crab eggs before it continues north to its Arctic breeding grounds. Without this vital source of food to re-energize, the Red Knot will not make the trip to the breeding grounds.
