Quote:
"It is late summer on
my favourite estuary on the east coast and
I have just watched this group of four grey
plovers fly in off the sea. Riding in on a
light offshore breeze, their lightly bowed
wings held them steady as they touched down
in the rocky shallows. They seemed nervous
and kept themselves away from the other
shorebirds. After a little preening they
settled, taking turns for a quick nap. Most
birds sleep in a different way to humans,
by catnapping, often only for a matter of
seconds, always keeping at least one eye
partially open and on the lookout for
danger. I wanted to believe that these four
plovers had come in off the North Sea after
migrating from their breeding grounds in
northern Russia, and that I had just
witnessed their first
landfall..." Chris
