 Hi Birders, 
I had a short stop to look at the large number of
waterbirds roosting on the edge of the fast drying up Wamberal Lagoon near
Terrigal NSW this morning and there amongst the Black-winged Stilts was an
immature Banded Stilt, showing reddish coloured legs but no chestnut breast
bar. This would be the 3rd record for the Central Coast, all records since
1998. 
  
List of birds seen as follows 
  
Grey Teal 40 
Chestnut Teal 302 
Hardhead 1 
Great Cormorant 11 
Little Black Cormorant14 
Little Pied Cormorant 3
