Past two weeks in pictures

Here are some very cool photos taken by AAfCW Waterbird Technician Marc Rivadeneyra!

First the American Oystercatcher chick that was swimming to save itself at Cockenoe Island.

A Common Tern chick.

A Piping Plover chick.

A Piping Plover fledgling engaged in a variety of activities.

A pair of adult Piping Plovers.

 
Please bear in mind these photos were taken with a 50x zoom which is how we manage to prevent disturbing the birds and why they look like they have no idea someone is watching (because they don't!).
