translate English to French: 3.3 Key Sites used by Migrating Shorebirds The most essential habitats for migrant shorebirds are the wide intertidal mudflats and marshes along the James and Hudson Bay coasts, where hundreds of thousands of birds gather.While certain areas are identified as holding larger concentrations, the entire shoreline is of importance at various times and as conditions change seasonally, annually, and over the years.
Les berges, vasières et marécages associés aux étangs, bassins de stabilisation des eaux usées, cours d’eau et lacs constituent des lieux où les oiseaux migrateurs peuvent se reposer et s’alimenter.
