Subject: Curlew Sandpiper: Decline caused by leg flagging.
"Today i observed a Curlew sandpiper on the beach at
Point Cook with one leg missing and the other leg
broken at the first joint. On the broken leg was an
orange flag."
Please explain how was that she saw it? flying? floating? in a little wheel
chair?
I just very curious because look like she find mutilated birds every day.
So if you can explain how she found this "one legged bird" with a broken leg
and a flag? (and not standing?) don't you agreed that is a very strange
thing?
I may be wrong, but I think she is lying.
Kind Regard

At no stage did Kym say the bird was standing.
This doesn't mean I agree with what she says, just that I think we should
be
fair.
What does bother me is the suggestion that 'large numbers' of Red-necked
Phalarope are to be found in Broome. To think I drove all that way and
didn't see one!
