Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Piping Plover - LP Zoo

A piping plover bird I be.
As an ambassador I try
To let the public know that we
In the wild are threatened and why.
Beaches on the waters are where
We like to build the nests so that
Our little ones can hatch there.
But we're losing this habitat.
As more and more humans do come,
Our nests come under attack,
An invasion most worrisome,
Causing us to never come back.

There are helpful things you can do.
