I know! They surely won the race in WA! Although in some regions of WA, like the lakes in Yalgorup NP, hoodies can nest in autumn and winter. And probably that’s also the case in some WA inland lakes.

What better way to celebrate National #ThreatenedSpeciesDay than with the first #HoodedPlover chicks of the season in south west WA? The tiny fluff balls were seen foraging along the beach with their parents. Remember to give birds space!
