Must be the same people that counted the mated pairs
Lets see can we count the ways....Fox - Skunk - Coyote - Raccoon - Mink-- Osprey - Eagle - Owls - Falcon - Crow - Rat - Snake - Children - Rangers - Storms - Tides ETC...... and the powers that are protecting the plovers are targeting CROWS! Gee I wonder if they know the difference between a Raven and a Crow??

Seems to me that the presence of humans on the beach will help deter all the above from hanging around in our presence.

Ridiculous !!!
