It looks good right now for a SCV area for Memorial Day weekend, maybe even two, there are around 46 nesting pairs of plovers on the National Seashore and 24 nests (so far) but none scheduled to hatch until after the holiday. Of course there is a nest right by the north side access trail, so enjoy it while you can. Some nests were washed over in the last (storm) high tides, so expect them to attempt to re-nest. Don't shoot the messenger!

Wow! That many nests? I thought these critters were "endangered." BS!

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
