The Pacific golden plover is a medium-sized plover. The genus name is Latin and means relating to rain, from pluvia, "rain". It was believed that golden plovers flocked when rain was imminent. The species name fulva is Latin and refers to a tawny color. Watch this video as this species visits Camiguin, Philippines during this season. THANK YOU!
