Hi Birders,
The Hudsonian Godwit as reported in the March issue
of Wingspan at Penrice Saltfields Adelaide, (see Twitchers Corner p35) is now on
show in its usual premigratory roosting spot along with 60-70 Black-tailed
Godwits. Up until now it has been rather sporadic and difficult to find over
summer. It is fairly easy to pick out as it is one of the few birds that's in
breeding plumage. It should be around for at least another two or three weeks if
anyone is keen to catch up with it. I've posted a recent photo of the bird on
the Australian Bird Image Database but hope to get some better shots
soon.
Cheers
David Harper
