Birders,

Forgot to mention before, 

It was amazing to witness an account of "evasive freezing" exhibited by the
waders at the Woodvale Ponds in the presence of an Australian Hobby.  The
Hobby circled the ponds for some time, during which most of the small
waders (i.e. Sharpies, Marshies, Stints, Dotterels, Plovers and even the
young Avocets) crouched low to the ground/water until danger passed.

Common behaviour?

Cheers,

Chris Tzaros
