Hi Birding-Ausers,

On a whim we went to the Manly high tide roost yesterday well past high tide so 
did not see the usual numbers of waders.  No cosmic rarities I'm afraid, but 
did see a single Double-banded Plover (non-breeding) in the first scrape on the 
way in - it flew off with a few Red-necked Stints, but would think it would 
come back with the next high tide.  Also had great views of Lesser Sand Plover 
and Pacific Golden Plover in full breeding plumage and there were a few Little 
Tern and Lesser-crested Tern present, too.  Not a wasted trip after all!

Regards

Judith
