Piping Plover chick foraging

Check out some more awesome photos from Timothy L. Thompson of this Piping Plover chick at Bluff Point! In the third and seventh shots see if you can spot a sand fly, a tasty treat for the species. If we had more Piping Plovers we would have less flies annoying us while we were trying to enjoy a day at the beach. Thanks again to Timothy, and look for more of his photos coming up soon.
