Thanks Alan
Please, everyone, do not be tempted to get too close and flush the
birds, please just look from under the bridge - I am sure the
fishermen will flush the birds for us.

Stockton is on the Hunter River estuary and a good spot for waders:

Naturally paste as one line if it wraps! This should work too:

You'll see the small grey patch on the north side of the bridge,
where the 121 road crosses Hunter River and the 'F' of Fullerton
Road is on the map (below Fern Bay). One must assume that yellow
roads over blue water indicates a bridge;-)
You enter the area under the bridge by turning on to Fullerton
Street from Fullerton Road and doubling back under the Southern side
of the bridge! (The double back track is very close to the road
junction bend here. You actually park under the bridge looking north
at the "grey patch". This is where the waders roost and you should
try and see them from the car park area.
Change the link to satellite view and you can zoom in to see exactly
where it all is!
Good luck.
Alan
