This may be a common catch in NZ but here in Australia 1st time I’ve captured both our summer & winter migratory birds together. There were 8 godwits on roost this AM, 9 this PM. Winter bird is double-banded plover when in Oz & banded dotterel (pohowera) in NZ.
Pied oystercatcher completes the set. @projectgodwit #ohmygodwits @BirdlifeOz @ShorebirdOrg @WaderStudy @waderquest @EAAFP @GlobalFlyway @ForWaders #shorebirds #waders
I had an incorrect ID of this bird, not seen one before. It has been ID'd as a red-necked stint.
