I took a lot of photos so in today's gallery I've interspersed beach shots for the benefit of the folks that have never visited this place before to see the endangered Piping Plover in one of their premier nesting areas. I counted nine Piping Plovers going down the beach toward the morning sun and thirteen Piping Plovers coming back. The plovers were in three distinct groups, a small group of three before the first headland, that's where the rocky outcrop stands offshore, a group of six at the primary nesting area just past the first headland and another group of four about 500 metres before the beach ends. There was a lot of displaying going on which was amusing to watch.
