Cedar Beach chicks, Mlf Pt spit White-rumped SPs



On a sunny, warm Sunday when many horseshoe crabs were around and people were out in force, the Piping Plover families were in evidence. First, a video showing 3 of the group of 4 chicks. These chicks are smaller because born after the family of 2 chicks (which were born in exclosure #1). Also present, a pair of breeding (alternate) plumaged White-rumped Sandpipers, one of which keeps scratching its bill.
