Let's save our Piping Plovers.

Welcome to the Strathmere Plover Project! We are a group of volunteers dedicated to protecting endangered Piping Plovers and other birds who nest on our beaches. We partner with the Strathmere community to show that everyone can make a difference through education, understanding, and respect for nature.
