Little Ringed Plover
Charadrius dubius
Prior's Fen gravel pits, Peterborough - 21 April 2003

A superb little wader which should do a lot better than it does around the Peterborough area. We have the pits for it, but seem to get very few staying on to breed. Is it just me, or after the many years of population growth are we seeing a slow-down?
