Hi all
after not seeing the Noddy during a very quick look last week on my way home
from Warriewood (when the tide was completely wrong), I went and had another
look this morning.
The Black Noddy is still at Long Reef - at 7am this morning (17 April) it
was fishing in the surf just off the seaward end of the reef. Also seen on
the reef flat many Ruddy Turnstones & Red Necked Stint - at least 5 in
breeding colours - 12 Sooty Oystercatchers, 1 Golden Plover, 20+ Double
Banded Dotterel (Adults & Immature birds with buffy coloured heads) and 4
Grey Tailed Tattler.
The tide was high today at 10am or thereabouts so was coming in when I was
there and was over the lowest parts of the reef flat as I left at 7:15, so I
had to paddle back to land (I was expecting this and had my crummiest shoes
on), so morning visits looking better over the next few days.
Cheers
Tom Wilson
