    “Even if it is not yours please pick it up”. Great thought! Thanks for the great video.

    smaller ones looks like those cartoonishly round birds with needle beaks
    they're super cute when they're wobbling around 😊

    💫💙💫🩵💫💙💫🩵💫💙💫 Our beautiful world
    would be a lonely place
    Without the shore birds
    as they run down the shore
    to win the race.
    They seem to run
    haphazardly
    all over the place
    As I watch the shore
    & the birds doing
    their thing
    I am in awe
    of just about every thing
    They work so hard
    from dusk till dawn .
    & some will even
    navigate all night long .
    They will get to their next destination
    with style & grace
    To land on the shores
    again
    to run the race .💫

    These birds are wonderful! I'm glad things are done to protect their homes and daily lives.
    Thank you for this interesting video. I learnt a lot - I didn't know about keeping a dog on leash even if it sounds logical when I'm thinking about it.

    Hi Kim, I see 3 new birds in the aviary, are they red knots? Love the addition of a 2nd snowy plover. Love watching the live aviary cam every day.

    Our 2 beaches adjacent Vandenberg Space Force Base are closed to foot traffic during snowyplover nesting season. There is an attempt to monitor for infractions, but after a certain number, the beach is forced closed for the duration. Many of us locals are always so hopeful that the infractions will be minimal so as to keep the beaches open. A few years, it was close, but nope. Many folks are angry that the beaches must be closed. Bumper stickers, passive protests using signs, etc. I don't use the beach at all, so I sit on the fence with that dilemma.

    • @olivei2484
      @olivei2484 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      One thing that was observed up here was the plovers were more susceptable to predators when foot traffic was down. As long as people and dogs stayed away from the nesting dunes, there was little plover-people conflict. ORE parks really enforces the leash laws, and that helps.

    • @alanatolstad4824
      @alanatolstad4824 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@olivei2484 Agreed. That was the consensus here too, about more wildlife predators filling that niche. No-win situation.

    Thanks for the information. I had no idea that when I used to bring my dog to the ocean years back I could be disturbing the wildlife I only knew from where I live about seals and during nesting, mating and growing their pups to keep him away from them. If I knew more I wouldn’t of done different. I hope that there are signs today up so people can make an informed decision (& hopefully the right one haha but I haven’t been since becoming disabled to the ocean this is) but for others are there signs up besides keep dogs leashed about the birds? Hope so!

      We have beach clean-ups in Oregon before the Snowy Plover nesting season. Parks arrange it. They close the dune nesting area from April 1 through September. They have designated walkways to access the tidal region.
