Interestingly, there have been Oriental Plovers in the Central Coast Wetlands,
Tuggerah (NSW), on Bribie Island (SE-QLD), Alice Springs & Darwin (NT) and one
in New Zealand! In addition Michael Rutkowski saw two at Baker's Lagoon
Wilberforce/Richmond in the Hawkesbury (NSW). Here Michael's post to Eremaea
that I received and moderated today:
