Why Plum Island Beach Closes in April for the Piping Plovers

Why is Plum Island Beach Closing on April 1?  For the piping plovers, that s why. I have always been particularly perplexed about why the beaches close for the Piping Plovers.  It s happening again at the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge Beach on Plum Island, as it does every year at about this time. The closing is meant to protect the piping plovers nesting, according to newburyportnews.com.  According to the Audubon society, the status of the piping plover is threatened or endangered. This explains why we steer clear of them when they are trying to reproduce.  It s not the only time of year that we move out of their way, however.
