    MARINE CORPS BASE HAWAII – Hawaiian Stilt Birds fly over a wetland part of the Nu’upia Ponds Wildlife Management Area aboard Marine Corps Base Hawaii, March 1, 2017. The Hawaiian Stilt, an endangered species of shorebird, calls these wetlands home along with other water fowl. About 150 Stilts nest aboard the base, which is 10% of the total population on Oahu. Every year MCB Hawaii and base environmental facilities partner together for the annual ‘Mud Ops’ to remove invasive plant species from wetlands to clear up areas for shorebirds and seabirds.
