Don Lyons

I am a wildlife biologist with an affinity for birds, and for terns in particular. Terns as a group display an interesting diversity of breeding, foraging, and migration behaviors, providing a rich opportunity for ecological inquiry. While I am fueled by a basic curiosity about terns and other birds, I seek out research opportunities that feed directly or indirectly into species conservation and management. I typically work with state, federal, and tribal wildlife agencies, interested conservation organizations, and other constituencies to provide scientific information to help make conservation and management decisions.
