Busy Plovers

A pair of Little Ringed Plovers with young at site in Port Talbot Docks were extremely tolerant of vehicles passing within yards of where they'd chosen to let their chicks feed. In fact one chick actually went through a fence and under my car at one point (parked I hasten to add!).

Breeding Ringed Plovers also present at another site not far away probably on second attempt.
