PLUMSTED TOWNSHIP – Ocean County is the full-time and seasonal home to more than 300 species of common and exotic birds and they are fundamental to our region’s ecological balance. Learn about the many types and their contributions during “Birds of Ocean County with Cattus Island” at the Ocean County Library Plumsted Branch, 11 AM Thursday, June 12.
