Mixed shorebird flock in Biddeford, ME. The only positive to the slew of beach goers constantly flushing the birds today was phone video ops.

That dad bod is a super adaptation to provide your chicks with refuge from the blasting heat. Even when your chicks are reaching that fledge age, nothing like a good sun shield from dad.

A reminder that Piping Plovers are adorable birds. They've returned to their breeding grounds at ocean and lakeside beaches. #ShareTheShore #WhichMeansLeashYourDogsPlease #AndFollowAllTheSignsAboutPetsOnTheShore

It’s shorebird baby time! American Oystercatcher keeps a close eye on her chick as it forages for dinner on a NYC beach. If you see these birds, please give them space.💕

EEK! Did you see that hidden little clutch of eggs?!
While you may be looking for Easter eggs, western snowy plovers, rare shorebirds that weigh about 2 AA batteries, are looking for the ideal nest-spot to rear their young! We can #SharetheShore by walking along the wet sand.
