The flags on the legs help to identify the individual birds, the adult here is not flagged. While I was able to photograph all three fledglings only two are pictured in these photos.

Piping Plover - Adult and Fledglings
I was asked by one of the local Piping Plover monitors to try to photograph the fledglings of this particular nesting pair. There was a concern that only one chick had survived in the week leading up to the time they would be fully fledged and ready to leave the area. I was happy to do so and also happy to report that all three young ones were still alive and well at the time. August 15, Louis Head Beach NS.
