Piping Plovers Return to Twin Ports | Duluth News

Big news from Wisconsin Point: endangered Piping Plovers have nested there for the first time in nearly 50 years, laying eggs and building a nest — a major win for Great Lakes shorebirds. This marks only the fourth nesting site in Wisconsin, thanks to years of volunteer efforts and habitat protection. The St. Louis River Alliance and Wisconsin DNR are celebrating this milestone, hoping more birds will follow as more dunes are preserved. Public help is key — keep dogs leashed, share the shoreline, and pick up trash to support recovery goals of 150 birds. Slow but steady progress — and it’s happening.
