Published sightings for the week ending 9 May 2010.
Sat 8 May Possible Little Stint Lee Point (Darwin)
on Saturday May 8th, I saw a single tiny Stint, that matched the
description of a Little Stint, amongst a mixed flock of Greater and
Lesser Sand Plovers, Sanderlings, Great Knots, Grey-tailed Tattlers,
Turnstones and a Terek Sandpiper on the rocks at Lee Point in Darwin.
There were no other Stints there for comparison. If any Darwin birders
or birding visitors are out there soon would you please scan the waders
and, if you find it, let me know what you think it is.
