The 2006 international piping plover census in Canada / J. Paul Goossen, Diane L. Amirault-Langlais (editors).: CW69-5/490E-PDF

"The fourth International Piping Ployer Census was conducted primarily during 3-16 June 2006. The Canadian breeding population is now estimated at 2164 adults, which represents approximately 27% of the North American breeding population. In comparison to the 2001 census, Canadian numbers increased markedly (+49%), however, this figure may be artificially high because the number of birds in Prairie Canada was lower than normal in 2001"--Abstract, p. iii.
