I have been asked to add some more detail and remind people that for some of the multiple records, such as the 25 Pectoral Sandpiper records in the ACT, it was likely to be a single bird recorded a number of times. For the Pectoral Sandpiper, a single bird was recorded from September 02 to Jan 03 with all but one record at Kellys Swamp. Below is the same table with the maximum number of birds recorded.
