Cedar Beach Chicks 28 June 10





The top picture is of of one of four very young Cedar Beach chicks probably hatched from the exclosure on 25, 26 June 2010. Notice how large its legs and feet are in relation to its body.
The next picture shows the Cedar Beach area favored by the foraging PPs: the small gut has been a favorite place for mating Horseshoe Crabs. The exclosed nest site can just be made out: the yellow signs are barely visible in front of the houses in the distance.
Pictures 3 and 4 are of Piping Plover chicks taken on 28 June 2010 at Cedar Beach.
First, two of four Cedar Beach chicks, now about 4-weeks old.
