Crowned Plover Chicks

I went to the VW test track on Thursday with Neville to go and take some photographs of the recently hatched crowned plover chicks. For Afrikaans speaking people - a Plover is a "Kiewiet" in Afrikaans. A name I am sure they received from the sound they make when frightened or in flight .

All together now - aaaawwwwwwwwww...

Word verification: "flurki" - is that Afrikaans for "feather" ? Very apt! (Yes, I KNOW that's not how you spell it!)
