ESCANABA — Escanaba has recently become home to a couple of very special visitors, and area residents are being asked to leave the welcome wagons — or kayaks — in the garage.
A small island off Escanaba’s Aronson Island is currently home to a small family of piping plovers, an endangered species. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologist Christie Deloria-Sheffield said this is the first time a breeding pair of piping plover has been found this far west in Delta County.
