Call of the Wild, Male Golden Plover

The Jewel in the crown of the Northern uplands and most years I am lucky enough to be able to photograph these marvellous birds in their moorland habitat.

These birds can be very wary but often the male can be quite bold and if you sit quietly nearby they will sometimes come in really close.I've had, on occasions, a Plover literally walking around me just feet away.

Taken in the Peak District.
