Photograph ©Brad Maryan. Non-breeding Double-banded Plover
Observation details
Found on 4th April by Brad Maryan. A single Double-banded Plover present with Greater Sand Plovers. The bird appears to have either worn juvenile or non-breeding adult plumage; an earlier photo from 4th April suggested it was a younger bird. Generally confined to the shoreline between a band of high tide seaweed and the water. Running with a typical small plover gait and pecking for food. When disturbed, maintained its grouping the Greater Sand Plovers it was associating with, following them.
