King of the castle

My first Little Ringed Plover of the year (and possibly the first of the PBC area in 2005) was this bird, calling repeatedly on top of a mountain of gravel at Maxey/Etton pits, Cambs (23.3.05). The yellow flowers on the gravel slope are Coltsfoot, which is looking splendid at present.
