シロチドリ求愛、交尾

April 2, 2018

Kentish Plovers and Little Terns used to breed here, and around this time last year Little Whimbrel and Greater Sand Plover also turned up. Greater Sand Plover, Lesser Sand Plover, and Pacific Golden Plover were among the other species using the area as a stopover on migration — but development now appears to be getting under way.
