The Heyfields chick did not make one week. As predicted, there was some excitement with two banners being stolen and the Parks Victoria staff going out on strike. Last Sunday morning, there were 18 dogs on the same beach where a Hooded Plover chick was trying to survive and 7 of these were off lead. Lets not forget, that’s in a National Park and Hooded Plovers are listed as threatened on the FFG act.
