Piping Plovers in Stratford

Piping plover nest sites are so rare in Connecticut -- only 46 nesting pairs, as of June -- it's good to see that Stratford seems to be taking their protection seriously as it figures out what to do with Long Beach West.

Fred Musante, who was covering Long Island issues for the Bridgeport Post when I was reporting in the late 1980s, wrote about it for Stratford Patch here.
