Yes, I know. Thankfully they are rebounding pretty well for now. But there still isn't a ton from a wider perspective. Thanks for checking out the video!
Very adorable little birds. Wouldn't it be great if people could spend more time observing nature and respecting it for what it is. The world would be a happier place.
I’m a bird guy there my favorite animals they are so unique they fly without anything but there bodies while we need technology to fly but my favorite thing about birds is how many different species of them that all do the same shit but look completely different
Very informative video! The piping plover is so adorable and a joy to see the little ones. I am glad places are taking some great measures to keep their habitat protected. Thanks for sharing this video as well to spread the word
Thanks so much! I appreciate you guys checking it out. A different side of natural world in New England than the forest and mountain creatures we love, but worth checking out and protecting.
@@johnwelchphotography We love it all too, John. (Libby here) We have a blast with the plovers and terns. Those tiny cotton balls with toothpick legs running around like cute fluffy Mr Magoos. How can people not adore them!? And YES, keep your dogs away, close the beaches and let these little creatures thrive. Loved the video. Thank you again for the message.
A lot of good information here! I camped two nights last September on Assateague Island and had a blast photographing the Piping Plovers and other birds. They were very interesting to watch. I am very glad to hear their numbers are on the rise and hopefully will remain that way!
Thanks for checking it out and sharing your experience with them. Assateague has been on my list of places to check out someday. Yes, hopefully the cute little plovers will keep increasing!
I came to youtube because I want to go to the beach to do some birding today but the rain is deterring me. I have yet to see a piping plover here in southeastern North Carolina, and hearing their little piping on your video made me smile so big. Shorebirding is a major special interest of mine, and this video encourages me to brave the rain for the sake of attaining the joys of observing delightful birds who are not so deterred by the rain as humans. And I will keep your advisory to wait ahead of the birds and back off after a time in mind, as I have likely been stressing out the darling birds with my strafing at a distance in my quest to see them. Great advice! Hopefully I will see a piping plover this winter season -- I'll keep an ear out!
That is great to hear of your joy in shorebirds! I love them too obviously. In winter, I wouldn't worry about stressing them out as much as when they are brooding nests or guarding chicks in spring and early summer. Less impactful at that time of year. I think the best strategy is to observe and area for a while, if you locate some in the distance see which way they are headed, get way ahead of them and wait. Most times they will come up to you at that point and not be bothered. Good luck!
Piping plovers are my favorite bird and probably animal overall and I'd love to work in their conservation efforts one day.... Amazing video, thank you!! Plovers are just perfect!!!! :^D

They actually go past Nova Scotia. We have them here, in Newfoundland along our shores. My brother in-law actually works with a group for the birds conservation.
Lets not let these little fluffy birds disappear 😭❤Love these beautiful creatures ❤

Yes, I think you are right!
Texas is the wintering ground for 35 percent of the piping plover. Love seeing them with their young.

Extreme levels of cuteness.
I agree! I had to go back this year and photograph them again because of that.

Oh wow, that cool that they make it that far north. Glad you shared that!
Long live shorebirds, and the people who protect them.
Yes, hopefully they can thrive into the future!
These are endangered in NY. Yes they are super cute
They're so pretty! Save them.
I agree with both points! Thanks for checking this out!
Plover should have to pay money 4 the beach like the rest of us 😂 and stop stepping on there children with there little stick legs
