Mud Stomp 2003

If we needed any proof that our efforts were welcomed by the birds, it wasn’t long in coming – more than once, a mated pair of snowies started exploring our bootprints. One pair allowed the volunteers to get pretty close, then gave forth with some mating calls, and the male did a “rodent run” to impress his mate.

Two plovers investigate possible nesting sites...

 

...and give the birders among us some good looks.
