Long Toed Stint
Wilfords Lane wetlands, Lake Burrill., New South Wales
A single LT Stint was spotted this morning at 9.30 am on the west end of the wetlands feeding along the lake mud flats. Seen when looking from the outlook at the end of Wilford Lane and originally mistaken for a Sharpie until moving towards to 2 Black Fronted Dotterels standing close bye . Although severely Tazered by the electric fence I still managed to get closer and get better veiws of the leg colour and general plumage. This has been a poor season re Wilford WL besides a few hundred Sharpies early in the season there's been nothing of the regular sightings G Plovers.G Shanks or Marsh SPs. this seems late in the season for waders?
