Heat-related emergency room visits have been climbing as New York suffers through multiple heat waves.
Late Saturday, the chick was 'lethargic and struggling' near Montrose Beach after 'feeding and moving normally' throughout the day. Only one of four hatchlings remain.
Three chicks were confirmed at the nest of piping plovers Imani and Sea Rocket, but the fourth chick was missing under 'unknown circumstances,' the Chicago Piping Plovers group said.
Names for four new chicks born to Imani and Sea Rocket at Montrose Beach will be selected through the public contest. Entries are due Thursday.
