The following is a digest of Sightings Reported on Birdpedia for the period Monday, June 20, 2016 to Sunday, June 26, 2016:
Area: SA
Location: Black Point, Y. P.
Double-banded Plover (Charadrius bicinctus) (24) In a flock of 52 shorebirds, with 12 Red-capped Plover & 16 overwintering Red-necked Stint.
When disturbed this flock flew onto a band of seaweed, which camouflaged them really well. I took photos from a distance, pointing the camera in what I hoped was the right spot. The 2 photos are of rather poor quality, but when enlarged greatly did allow a count of part of the flock.
