I had the impression that this was an alarm call directed at the chicks.
Beobachtungsdetails
Adult with two chicks, outside the roped off area across the street from the Clam Box. The birds were between the roped off area and the shore. I was on the sidewalk when I noticed a man walking along the beach with his dog. The dog saw the adult plover and went after it, but the plover ran ahead and then inside the cordoned off area. Luckily, the dog was on a leash and the startled owner was able to hold it back before stopping to read the signs and promptly leaving the beach. After I saw the chicks, I realized that the plover had probably led the dog to chase it in order to deflect attention from its young.
