European Golden-Plover
European Golden-Plover
Pluvialis apricaria
A simple vista
An irregular spring visitor to Newfoundland, sometimes seen in flocks, especially after strong storms over the North Atlantic. A few spring records elsewhere in eastern Canada, and a scattering of late summer and fall records, including some in the eastern United States. Like other golden-plovers, may be seen in shoreline habitats or on open fields.
