DescriptionWestern snowy plover (Charadrius alexandrinus nivosus) eggs snuggled in salt.jpg | Western snowy plovers (SNPL) sometimes make nests in salt pannes, salt flats, or around areas where salt is naturally extracted from the earth. Here, in the San Diego Bay, "South Bay Salt Works" has been in operation for over 100 years; gathering salt by an old and slow process of salt evaporation ponds. On the levees of these ponds, birds such as SNPL can lay their eggs in a camouflaging nest of salt and dirt. (Lisa Cox/USFWS) | ||
