This from Alan Morris...
"The Oriental Plover was present from 27 September to 1 October at the Dairy
Swamp, Central Coast Wetlands, Tuggerah, it has not been seen since.
The site is not generally open to the public as yet however the Central Coast
Group, Birding NSW has regular and some at hoc outings to the site so that the
birds at the site are regularly monitored.
Today there was a Curlew Sandpiper with a Sharp-tailed Sandpiper at the site
but no sign of the Plover.
Alan"

Tim, the Tuggerah bird is on private property, same site as the Pectoral
Sandpiper has been. The Sydney one reported today on Birdline (seen last
week though) is accessible, however a private message to the finder
clarified that the Sydney Oriental Plover is at BUSHELL'S Lagoon, not
Baker's, as it says on Eremaea. David Stowe is heading out tomorrow, so
expect an update.
Cheers,
Joshua Bergmark
