“Beautiful, candid lovers,
Burnt out of our earthly covers,
We might have nestled like plovers
In the fields of eternity.”
D H Lawrence (1916)

Hide your couches! Shady Vance is coming to Wisconsin — rolling into Plover for a machining-facility photo-op… conveniently in Van Orden’s district. Nothing says “working people” like a VP cameo to prop up a chaos congressman. 🙃🦡☕ #Wisconsin #Plover #WI03 #Vance #DerrickVanOrden
How about a #borb from the summer, like this piping #plover on the beach? Hey Rob, can #gulls be borbs too? #BirdOfTheDay #birds #shorebirds #nature #birdphotography #EastCoastKin 🪶
A little long legged bird. Mainly white with brown/grey markings on its head and wings. Seen running on the beach.
#WhiteFronted #Plover. Seeing these little birds running on the beach always makes me smile.

A killdeer, a black, white and brown plover, hunting for invertebrates in a small freshwater stream.
Killdeer(Charadrius vociferus) is a type plover famous for feigning injury to lure predators away from its nest (eggs laid on bare ground). Even with this background, the birds are not easily noticed. #photography #killdeer #plover #birds #birdphotography #nature #wildlife #floridabirds #ornithology
One of the earliest harbingers of spring in these parts.. the return of the Northern Lapwings (Vanellus vanellus). A short-distance migrant, February is the month when thousands arrive from the near south in their fresh breeding plumage. #BirdingHungary #lapwings #plover #shorebirds #waders
“Piping Plover, not just at Wasaga Beach, but all over Ontario, rely on the continued success of nesting at Wasaga Beach,” said Sydney Shepherd, Ontario Piping Plover Program Coordinator with Birds Canada.

A Semipalmated Plover stands on the sand looking straight ahead at the viewer, it's legs in a wide stance. It is on the wet sand of the beach with gentle ocean surf coming in immediately behind it.
A later-in-the-day post from me this evening.

a trio of red and silver Green Bay & Western Railroad ALCO RS2 diesel locomotives fly past a railroad crossing on a country road. The crossing has no safety gates, only a crossbuck sign and a (now mostly gone) wig wag signal, a red light on a rocking arm.
Green Bay & Western RS2 302 hustles across Highway 54 west of Plover, WI; April, 1965. Note the rare 'wigwag' crossing signal. Rick Burn #trains #history #photography #alco #diesel #red #silver #greenbay #plover #wisconisn #western #railroad #crossing #60s #1960s

Three banded Plover at Rosie's Pan/Naledi Lodge, South Africa, Africam
#birds, #Plover, #nature, #wildlife, #SouthAfrica, #livestream, #Africam
"The killdeer stands alert on a patch of sunlit grass, its slender body angled slightly forward as if poised for motion. Its plumage is a striking contrast of earthy brown across the back and wings, crisp white underparts, and two bold black bands slicing across its chest like ceremonial sashes. A delicate white ring encircles its neck, while a vivid red ring around its dark eye gives the bird a look of fierce clarity — a sentinel in feathers. The background is bright, almost washed out, which throws the bird into sharp relief, like a figure stepping forward from myth. Every feather is etched with precision, and the killdeer’s long legs and upright posture lend it a dignified, almost heraldic presence. The image feels like a moment of stillness before flight — a sovereign pause in the open field." - Microsoft Copilot

Tiny shorebirds, the size of sparrows. My daughter used to call them "little mice." ☺️
