PipingPlovers
Piping Plovers are an endangered species of shore birds that returned to Sauble Beach on Lake Huron in 2007 after a 30-year absence. Plover Lovers are volunteer monitors who, by serving as citizen scientists on the beach, help ensure the birds’ recovery in our area through outreach and education.
