While many shorebirds have wide distributions, the piping plover is a North American specialty, barely extending into Mexico in winter. Since many of these birds' nesting areas are subject to human disturbance or other threats, they are now considered endangered or threatened species in all parts of their range, which is why it’s vital for people to share the shore. | National Audubon Society

Piping Plover doing its signature foot tapping dance. The vibrations bring worms and invertebrates to the surface to make them easier to catch. I’ve posted this behavior before, but it doesn’t get old for me. They’re so fun to watch. A few other shorebirds are known to do a similar move, but for me this is a trademark of the Piping Plover. | NC Bird Watch

Bird lovers rejoice: it's nesting season for the piping plover, one of the cutest and most vulnerable native birds living along the New York coastline. The next few months are crucial for the survival of this beloved shorebird species, which is why a group of volunteers have banded together to protect their habitats along local beaches. NYC Plover Project volunteers work together to protect endangered piping plovers and other shorebirds that nest on our city's beaches. https://abc7ny.com/post/ny

Piping plovers, one of the most endangered bird species in North America, have an unusual approach to nest-building: the male will dig a shallow bowl in the sand and if a female finds it acceptable, she’ll move in and camouflage it with shells and other beach debris.

Piping plovers, or as we like to call them, the cutes with legs, are asking you for some R-E-S-P-E-C-T as they nest and raise their young. Just a few short hours after hatching, baby piping plovers have the ability to hunt and forage with their parents. They run in short starts and stops and when still, adults and chicks blend into the pale background of open, sandy habitat on outer beaches where they feed and nest.

National Audubon Society on Instagram: "Run. Stop. Run. Stop. If you’ve ever seen a Piping Plover plod over a sandy shore, you know of the adorable dance they do in the surf while looking for food. We couldn’t imagine our coastlines without them, but if climate change continues unchecked, 87% of the Piping Plover’s breeding habitat could be lost. Our coastal stewardship program helps steward these plovers and other shorebirds, but we can’t continue to do this important work without your support.
