Today I heard a brief segment on ABC Radio Triplej news about birders
around the world being amazed at a find of a Broome leg-flagged Curlew
Sandpiper in South Africa......wasn't this bird featured on birding-aus
recently?
Yes. Radio 720 in Perth had an interview with Dan Blunt from the Broome
Bird Observatory for 5 to 10 minutes this morning. I have already been
asked by a couple of non birders if I heard the interview. This is a good
chance to explain to people the importance of these birds and protecting
their habitat.
