First Piping Plover(s) of 2016, 3/11/16, Milford Point

First Piping Plover(s) of 2016, 3/11/16, Milford Point.  Nick B found a PIPL at Long Beach Stratford yesterday.  Today, found a PIPL at beginning of Francis Street Spit around 11:15 AM, near high tide.  Found a second about half-wt out western sandbar.  At high tide, western sandbar washed over.  Could be trouble for nesting.  Photo of first PIPL below:
