Adult seen on Rimac beach 251116 in a flock of 128 Curlew
Hi Nige,
thanks a lot for reporting one of “our” birds! It’s the first sighting of this bird from another country, so it’s very interesting and helpful for our understanding of this population! You’ll find the Life History attached. These birds are very site faithful, so you might have the chance to see him again (or maybe even other colour-ringed birds). If so, please report it again. These informations are very important and we are always grateful to get them! So thanks a lot again and keep on watching
