Hi Guys
Appreciate your info and details, Jill, just wanted to add that
we saw the plover from the car park on the south spit, via scope,
as it trundled around on the north shore at 10.00 last Saturday
morning - 5 hours before the high tide (at approx 2 - 2.30pm). It
moved around a lot on the sandbank and disappeared at times
from view over the 'back' of the bank, but re-appeared several
times during the hour or so that we watched it. So, Glenn if your
time is restricted you may be lucky as we were and still get it
in view at low tide.
Nice bird - I'm still wondering what its doing here!
Cheers
Colin

Sorry Glenn, I misread your intention to go to Noosa tomorrow,
but you said Saturday. On Saturday the tide is horrible. You'll
need to be there very early in the morning for the high tide,
which peaks before 8am. In that case perhaps you might be better
off hiring a tinny and checking all the sandbanks - if you get
there later.

Hi Birders,
I am heading up to Noosa Heads on Saturday to try to find the Hooded Plov
er amongst other birds. Has anyone seen it since the 21st?
What other spots would be good me to see other waders/shorebirds while I
am up that way?
cheers
