p.1 #1 · Plover Fight

I have no clue what this was about. It's not mating season and there is plenty of mud to go around. The photos are taken looking down from a bridge so not a pretty angle yet the action was amazing. I limited the number of images as I did not want this to be one of those posts.

Comments and suggestions welcome,

Morris
