CHICAGO — Another piping plover, believed to be female whose name is Sea Rocket, returned to Montrose Beach on Wednesday, giving observers hope that there might be a love connection in the works.Sea Rocket was a captive-reared chick that was released in Chicago last year along with two other plovers, Wild Indigo and Prickly Pear. Piping plovers are thought to be nearly extinct.When the plover left, a fishing line was tangled on its foot.
His parents, Monty and Rose, captured the hearts of Chicagoans in 2019 and again during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.The piping plover was placed on the Federal Endangered Species list almost four decades ago, in 1986. There must be at least 150 breeding pairs not to be considered endangered. In comparison, in 1990, there were only 13 pairs, but that number has made gains in recent years.
