The Oriental Plover was still on the same field this morning - I left it at
7.30am. As you go along Watson's Road (pass Boyce Rd on your RHS heading west)
the road does a sharp left - the bird is on the short cropped field on the left
hand side look back up towards the house. It's not in the field by the dam
further on where all the Banded Lapwings are. There are a few Banded Lapwings
in the field with the Oriental Plover - but it seems to be ignoring them. I've
just uploaded a photo here if any one wants a look:

I also had a couple of Ground Cuckooshrikes along Jimba Road.

> Hi All

> Stuart Warren reports an Oriental Plover with (approx) 12 Banded lapwing
> on Watson's Rd, near 7 Mile Lagoon, Lockyer Valley, ~70 kms west of
> Brisbane CBD this morning between 7.15 and 8.45. The bird appears to be
> in non-breeding plumage and seems, although at one point flushed, fairly
> settled at the location. Banded Lapwing chicks were observed in the same
> immediate area so if the OP is associating with the BLs it is likely to
> stay in the same spot.
