Bringing Awareness of Piping Plovers (The Ultimate Underdog) with NYC Plover Project

Have you heard about the Piping Plover? It is an adorable tiny shorebird that is seen to nest as well as feed along coastal sands and gravel beaches throughout North America. These sweet and loveable birds NEED our help! Between environmental, human, and predator impact there are only around 6,000-8,000 of them left in the world. Luckily, we have the New York City Plover Project, which has been working towards bringing awareness to the Piping Plovers and striving to help them to their fullest abilities to repopulate and stay safe. Please read further about how you can help protect the Piping Plovers, especially on your trips to the beach this summer, with the founder of NYC Plover Project, Chris Allieri.
