Portrait of Donald Lyons, an avian ecologist with Oregon State University and the Audubon Society. He holds two of the Chinese crested tern decoys that he and his collaborators designed to entice the terns to colonize the island and begin nesting there. These decoys proved vital in getting the birds to accept the space. Lyons brought the satellite tags which he successfully outfitted on the Greater crested terns and the first ever tagging of an adult Chinese crested tern.
