The European golden plover[5] spends summers in Iceland, and in Icelandic folklore, the appearance of the first plover in the country means that spring has arrived. The Icelandic media always covers the first plover sighting.[6]
A rare habit of a species that migrates every year to the Ozogoche lagoons, in southern Ecuador, occurs between September and October, when hundreds of plovers (called 'cuvivíes' in that area) swoop down and dive into the icy waters of the lagoons, where they die of hypothermia, a suicidal behavior for which no scientific explanation has been found so far.
