Piping Plover chicks, White-rumped SPs 6/19/11

Video shows three of the four chicks from the first Cedar Beach exclosure nest on 19 June 2011. Since hatching, these chicks often feed at the water's edge. The second video shows 2 White-rumped Sandpipers and 1 Semipalmated SP the same day--a day when quite a few Horseshoe Crabs were laying eggs. Notice WRSP scratching bill--same behavior as video of 6/16.
