Episode Details

Four new piping plover chicks have hatched at Montrose Beach—offspring of the beloved plover power couple Imani and Sea Rocket—and the Chicago Piping Plovers group is inviting the community to help name them. Submit up to four creative, culturally resonant names by 7 p.m. on June 21, honoring Chicago’s rich heritage while respecting the birds’ endangered status. Last year’s naming contest yielded memorable names like Bean, El, and Ferris—two of whom survived, though one fell to a hawk. These tiny chicks face a tough world, needing undisturbed space to thrive. This is your chance to connect with nature right in the city and support conservation efforts.
