It nests on the ground, solitary. The position is 2 to 3 eggs. Pollution of the beaches by the industry is leading to reduced feeding spaces.

Muchas gracias por sus buenos comentarios! alegran los días en cuarentena!
Para mi siempre es un gran honor que haya sido nominado y ganador del SOTW. En mi territorio estoy atento a las aves migratorias, que viajan desde el hemisferio Norte, Alaska, hasta Chiloé para alimentarse. Es un espectáculo!
Un abrazo desde el sur de chile! Que sea un gran 2021!

Thank you very much for your good comments! brighten the days in quarantine!
For me it is always a great honor that I have been nominated and winner of the SOTW. In my territory I am attentive to migratory birds, which travel from the Northern Hemisphere, Alaska, to Chiloé to feed. It's a show!
A hug from the south of Chile! Make it a great 2021!

Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
