Such a large ID tag on such a small migratory bird doesn't seem like a good idea to me. It's great that research is being done on this mysterious plover, but will what we learn be worth the potential danger to these small beauties? Of course if they disappear, we will blame it on habitat loss ( of great concern) and not on human interference.Antshrikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10013685186982068209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23654907.post-26753848077308115392012-08-13T13:27:17.396+08:002012-08-13T13:27:17.396+08:00So this is how duwop groups wrote their music? :)So this is how duwop groups wrote their music? :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23654907.post-16593094183848172032012-08-12T08:35:47.405+08:002012-08-12T08:35:47.405+08:00The locations of any re-sightings will be very int...The locations of any re-sightings will be very interesting...<br /><br />Good Luck to Malaysian birders !John Holmeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15419454306292739431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23654907.post-34252756984738270442012-08-10T21:51:40.223+08:002012-08-10T21:51:40.223+08:00Interesting piece of news Dave!
