Hi Mark,
A nice photo of a Wandering Tattler. Could I have a high res copy for my
resource file?
All of the characteristics of the Wandering Tattler are obvious in your photo.
It is interesting to note that the primaries are still abraded, something that
intrigues me with Wandering Tattlers, they often show late/delayed moult of the
primaries. So its wings look a little shorter than they would if new.
Interestingly in all the times I have seen Wandering Tattlers over the past 18
years I have yet to hear one call! I guess I don't chase them to put them into
flight.
regards,
Phil
