Wilson's Plover - The Navy Base Spot, Ocean Drive, Corpus Christi, Texas, USA
Joshua J. Cotten
Scientific name: Charadrius wilsonia
Conservation status: Least Concern (Population decreasing)
Mass: 1.9 oz 
Phylum: Chordata
Wilson's plover is a small bird of the family Charadriidae. It was named after the Scottish-American ornithologist Alexander Wilson by his friend George Ord in 1814.
A specialist hunter of fiddler crabs, the Wilson's Plover is a heavy-billed shorebird of sandy beaches in the southern United States and in coastal South America. It blends in well with its shell-strewn beach habitat, and its plaintive call is often the first clue to its presence.
Wilson's Plovers occupy salt flats and sandy beaches or barrier islands year-round. They nest above the high-tide mark, usually not far from dunes. They also use human-made habitats such as dredge spoil islands.
