190614-N-EX134-1010 - U.S. Fleet Activities Yokosuka (CFAY) Briggs Bay is the site where migratory, ground-nesting Little Ringed Plovers (Charadrius dubius) lay their eggs, and new nests were recently discovered in the Briggs Bay laydown (construction) area during the Memorial Day weekend. "After hatching, the chicks will become mobile within an hour and leave the nest to find food," said Hisako Mawatari, CFAY's Public Works Department Natural Resources Program Media Manager.
