I have a couple of portrait photos of 2 of the 6 Piping Plovers taken with my
digital camera and scope on Sunday morning at Island 13 in Lake Co. TN. One
adult wore a single plastic band but no metal band. I'm sending for
information about the present banding of these birds. Being that there was no
metal band and only one colored band the bird will not be traceable to an
exact time or location. These birds tend to loose the metal band due to wear
and salt water relatively fast. It marks the 9th shorebird species and the
28th individual I have found banded in TN.
If you want to see these two cute visitors up close and personal, including
jewelry, drop me a line and I'll send a zip package of three shots for your
birding pleasure.
Good Birding!!!
