A huge thank you once again to our city’s conservation agent Ken Whittaker and the amazing team of Piping Plover volunteers who, with their kind dedication, helped one little chick survive Gloucester’s busiest of beaches.
Ken met recently with some of the volunteers, to review ideas and suggestions for next year, and to give volunteers thanks, as well as the fun caps pictured above. Left to right; Chris, Ken, Carol, and Hazel.

I was walking on Wingaersheek Beach this afternoon 09/09 around 4:30 and saw a plover on the rocks near the private side. Could it be the chick??? H(s)e was all alone.
