The plovers seemed to have developed a mobile nesting site, here they are currently making 5 knots to weather.

I hate the "stinking Plovers". We were doing battle over this silly Bastages back in 90. Here we are almost 20 years later and they are still endagered?? Come on!! Stop the insanity. They had their chance. Now give us back the beaches!!!

they are never going to give us back our beaches - they want us OFF. They now close beach for tern nests too. The issue of 'threatened' or 'endangered' is now irrelevant - the beaches are for birds, period. My ranger pals have told me for years that that state of MA want the CCNS for a bird sactuary - meaning not only no trucks or fishermen, but no people. I'm sure the enviromental extremists everywhere feel the same about the beach in their (meaning your) back yards too.
Patrick, CCNS was not all open - it was closed from #8 to High Head. That is where the tern colony is.

in RI, the majority of the remaining plovers fledged in the last week or so. f&w sent out a request on friday to help out picking up ropes and signage before the storm surge came.

those stupid birds are just pawns in a large game of chess.I hope they all made it out before the storm and nested safely in some dunes.I've heard the fox's in the dunes are hungry.  |
