We got Monty and Rose at Montrose Beach, but Chicago might be home to a new pair of piping plovers.
When a Piping Plover arrived at Rainbow Beach on 4/19 sporting a green band on its right leg, we gasped. Could it be?

While this Piping Plover was not Monty, we were thrilled to see another Piping Plover & would be elated if it choose to stay!

A piping plover was seen at Chicago’s Rainbow Beach. The bird sighting has fans excited about the possibility of another pair of plovers nesting and mating at the Chicago beach.
It is not known if the bird will even stick around, but here’s to hoping!
