Why it matters
The red-capped plover is a resilient shorebird native to Australia, easily identified by the distinct chestnut crown that gives the species its name. Its pointed wings and square tail are evolutionary adaptations that allow for swift, agile flight across the coastal mudflats and salt lakes where it forages.
