pectoral sandpiper

["KEITH BRANDWOOD" <>]

Hello everyone, There was a Pectoral Sandpiper at the Lagoon on Gronos Farm
Rd, Wilberforce this evening, most unusual habitat for this species as
there is no cover what so ever around the edge's,being in a large paddock.
It was finding plenty of good tucker, pulling long worms out of the mud at
every fourth or fifth probe. The exiting thing about this bird was that it
had a orange flag on the right
tibia, no bands on either leg.This is the third Pectoral for the Hawkesbury
this year all at different sites.
