Hi everyone,
It was still there this morning on a low tide, seen by myself and another
birder, Chris. As Tun Pin says, it is not showing any signs of breeding
plumage. There was a total of 14 obvious PGP's and the mystery bird. I'll post
a picture later and send a link to anyone interested. I won't be able to get
back there for about 8-9 days, but watching the cycle of breeding plumage among
the PGP's and Turnstones is quite interesting at the moment.
Also present were a pair of Double-banded Plovers, the first ones I've seen
there this year. Last week there was at least 15 Ruddy Turnstones, today there
was only 4-5. Similarly, last week there was a number of RN Stints colouring
up, but I couldn't find any in any sort of colour today.
Cheers
Troy

I saw and photographed it last weekend, and I'm going to have another look for
it early tomorrow.
