The Piping Plovers were back at their usual spot on the E B'way beach in Milford CT today, April 14, 2011. Below, a few still images, then a 45 second video of the male at 2: 41 PM; then the female (16 seconds). Both were relatively inactive today, as was the single pair we found at Milford Point. Perhaps the recent violent storm took something out of them

Hi Steve, We've been watching the Plovers between Silver Sands and Walnut Beach for several years. Do you know if the new boardwalk has affected the nesting area there? I haven't been able to get to the plover's territory yet this year, but it looks like the construction might have cut right through the nesting area. Thanks very much for your posts.
