As crews scrambled to build a giant miles-long beach berm, Walton County responded to scattered oil impacts.
On Sunday, a State Emergency Response Team worker came upon an “injured oiled bird.” It was identified as a grebe and was picked up by U.S. Fish and Wildlife.
Earlier on the county line, a wildlife rescue team also responded to reports of an oiled loon.
While crews were cleaning small tar balls off of Miramar Beach, Grayton Beach and Seaside were given the all clear. At Topsail Hill Preserve State Park, small tar balls reportedly watched ashore.
“Pea to quarter size tar balls” were spotted Sunday morning on Henderson Beach in Destin.
