Cambirdsong<p>The respite after the scampering. The three Piping Plover chicks that completely captivated us ran very fast for short distances then stopped on a dime and kept repeating that pattern as they foraged. I think this one finally collapsed from the exertion. (Last plover chick picture for a while, I promise.)<br> <br><a href="https://birds.town/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birding</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/PipingPlovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PipingPlovers</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/lifer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lifer</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/fluff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fluff</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/shorbs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shorbs</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdFamilyLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdFamilyLife</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BabyShorebird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BabyShorebird</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/CorsonsInlet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CorsonsInlet</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdsOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdsOfMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/beach" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beach</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/NaturePhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NaturePhotography</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/creationstruck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>creationstruck</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/SolaceInNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SolaceInNature</span></a></p>

Cambirdsong<p>Scampering into Saturday … Piping Plover chicks are tiny, pale, and fast, so speedy that you couldn’t see them on the video we took.

Cambirdsong<p>Piping Plover chicks, unable to fly for about four weeks after hatching, are diligently tended by the parents. The little ones we had the joy of seeing were older and quite mobile but we still witnessed the parents putting themselves between beach walkers and their chicks, calling out warnings with their whistling ‘peep lo’ sounds.</p><p><a href="https://birds.town/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birding</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/PipingPlovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PipingPlovers</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/lifer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lifer</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdFamilyLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdFamilyLife</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BabyShorebird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BabyShorebird</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/CorsonsInlet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CorsonsInlet</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/CapeMay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CapeMay</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdsOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdsOfMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/NaturePhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NaturePhotography</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/creationstruck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>creationstruck</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/SolaceInNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SolaceInNature</span></a></p>
Cambirdsong<p>Seeing a pair of Piping Plovers and their three chicks was one of our anniversary birding trip highlights in Cape May. The adults are small, about 7 inches in length, and their chicks, which weigh about the equivalent of two pennies when they hatch, are tiny and super fast. One of the parents and two of the chicks are visible in this photo. They stand out a bit more against the wet sand and water than they do in dry sand. Special shoutout to the New Jersey Fish & Wildlife rangers who brought this special lifer opportunity to our attention.</p><p><a href="https://birds.town/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birding</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/PipingPlovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PipingPlovers</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/lifer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lifer</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdFamilyLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdFamilyLife</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BabyShorebird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BabyShorebird</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/CorsonsInlet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CorsonsInlet</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/CapeMay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CapeMay</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdsOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdsOfMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/BirdPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/NaturePhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NaturePhotography</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/creationstruck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>creationstruck</span></a> <a href="https://birds.town/tags/SolaceInNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SolaceInNature</span></a></p>
