The Red-capped Plover Charadrius ruficapillus is a very cute shorebird that is often seen scurrying along the shoreline around Australia. Females seem to be the only sex to sit on the eggs according to literature, but no research appears to have been done on the night time routine. The estimated population is 95 000.
