I can hear the sound of twitchers grinding their teeth from here ...
Tomorrow might be a good day for twitcher spotting ...

BARC has received a submission on a Dunlin seen by Pattie Parker in
the Tuross Lake Estuary, NSW on the 5 January 2010. The bird was in
partial breeding plumage with black patches emerging on the belly.
This is one of 4 rare or uncommon waders Pattie submitted to the NSW
rarities committee. The others were Broad-billed Sandpiper, Long-
toed Stint & Ruff.
The submission was a hard copy but has been converted to a file of
116 Mb that includes video and still photographs. Pattie accesses
the sand bars in the estuary by kayak. She believes that she may
have first seen this bird in November. A 'dumpy brown wader' was
seen next day by Michael Crowley but it has not been seen since.
It is likely that it is still somewhere in Australia and by now
should be obvious at a glance. So when you find it, give me a ring!
