This monograph examines the taxonomy, appearance, behaviour, ecology and conservation of all four species of the tundra plovers - the three golden species (Eurasian, Pacific and American) and the Grey plover - and contrasts their natural history and biogeography. There are detailed accounts on all aspects of lifestyle including feeding, mating, parental care, moults, migrations, and avoidance of predation. There are also considerations of the differences in plumage, vocalisations, habitat use, pairing, nesting, movements and food.
