There are some tiny little birds along California's coastline that you wouldn't even know were there if you didn't take the time to sit in very specific areas for some considerable amounts of time. They are not particularly charismatic or beautiful. They are not loud or boastful... But they are survivors. Western snowy plovers are hardcore-living little birds and they are endangered. Out with Biologist Karine Tokatlian of San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory, we searched for them in Eden's Landing Ecological Reserve to get an idea of how they are doing in the small and extremely specific environments they need to survive. You can read more about them in Wild Expectations' upcoming online magazine, due on November 22, 2015. Click here for previous online magazines about California's wildlife conservation.
