The 2011 season begins with three shots of the new Piping Plovers (male, female, male) and a video of a Piping Plover goosestepping on the spit at Milford Point. Five 5 PPs were seen today: twwo male/female courting pairs and one single. Notice how fresh the plumage is and how striking the difference in bill color and collar definition between the male and female.
The first NE PPs for 2011 were sighted in RI around 3 March; subsequently PPs were seen at Stratford (Miley Bull and on the 6th) and Milford (on the 16th by Tom & Laura Z.)
