Found these Golden Plover eggs (Kapustarinta in Finnish) while hiking through the Kaldoaivi Wilderness Area on my two-month solo trek. It was already late in the summer, so they’re likely a second clutch—or possibly a failed first incubation. I took this photo without taking off my backpack, not wanting to linger near the nest in case the mother was close by.

Hawaiian Word of the Day: January 13th

The kōlea, or Golden Plover, is an amazing migratory bird that arrives in Hawai’i about August. And stays here through the winter months, leaving in May for the Arctic. The kōlea are here right now, look for them!

I only ever see Shore Lark when I go to #Norfolk and this year it took some doing. A walk of nearly two miles up the beach at #Holkham (and back again). Worth every step.

At #Titchwell these Golden Plover looked beautiful in the light.
