Please keep an eye out on the shore for all our little friends. This is an adult Piping Plover, and look how difficult it is to see even zoomed in and focused on it as the subject of the photo.
These birds are startled and their nests and young threatened when people unknowingly walk the shoreline around sensitive nesting areas. If visitors set up against or venture into fenced areas? Drive ATVs on the beach? Crash into the sand with kite boards? It is a wonder any survive. Please ensure you do your best to share the shore, and let others you meet know to do the same.
