With the worst "nests" in the bird world, one marvels that plovers ever make it to the next genetation.

Very cute little bird - I'm hope he is able to avoid detection better than he did you (although I'm glad you got a shot of him).
What a great shot. Good camouflage, too - it would have been very hard to spot!
