Lindsay,
I have forwarded your message to the Australian Wader Study Group, which now deals directly with these sorts of records. Hopefully someone will get back to
you with the original banding details. I am sure that they will also pass the record on to the Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme here in Canberra. I am sure people on the chat line will be interested in any details you receive.
Cheers,
Mark

I took the enclosed photo at the mouth of Bonville Creek near Sawtell (Coffs Harbour) recently. The leg bands are clearly visible and I wonder who if anyone may
be interested?
