Plover lovers and Monty and Rose fans were thrilled to hear that Rose has arrived safely at Montrose Beach to start the 2021 plover nesting season, we hope! Rose wintered in Florida, and traveled over 1,000 miles to Montrose from Anclote Key.

Usually males arrive before females, and we’re still waiting for Monty, who wintered farther away in Texas.
