That's interesting, Dimitris. I'm not sure what time you were there, but I
guess it just goes to show that the birds must be moving around a lot. I'd be
interested to know what part of Coila Lake you visited. We just looked from
the Tuross headland but the lake appeared devoid of waders, apart from a couple
of oystercatchers.
Regards
Frank
