Borran's Nature Photography: Common Ringed Plover
I found these cute little birds called Common Ringed Plover the other day.
I think I've never seen this bird before, so it was quite interesting!
In the second picture to the far right, you can find a juvenile Common Ringed Plover. As you can see, its colors are still developing.
Bird facts:
- Adults are 17–19.5 cm in length with a 35–41 cm wingspan.
- Breeding habitat: open ground on beaches or flats.
- They search for food on beaches, tidal flats and fields.
- Insects, crustaceans and worms are their main food.
- "If a potential predator approaches the nest, the adult will walk away from the scrape, calling to attract the intruder and feigning a broken wing. Once the intruder is far enough from the nest, the plover flies off".
