Subject: Three Piping Plovers and one Ipswich Sparrow on Martinique Beach


I took a stroll at Martinique Beach this morning and found three Piping Plovers, including one showing macho or courtship behaviour; head down, tail straight out and a straight line march towards another plover.

There was only one Ipswich Sparrow at the east end of the beach.  The flock must have found favourable winds or an ancestral calling and departed for Sable Island.

Photos this evening.
