American Golden Plovers Are Smuggling Plants into Australia

[Nikolas Haass <>]

Hi guys,

Laurie's mails were obviously marked with :-) and ;-)
I guess that his humorous point is that there are a few accepted records
of AGP in Australia, and why can't they smuggle North American plants into
Australia if the can do that to South America?
It would certainly be interesting if PGP and other Siberian shorebirds do
the same on 'our' flyway.

Cheers,

Nikolas
