Stilt Sandpiper

Yesterday at 1130 we saw the Stilt Sandpiper amongst the rocks on the north side of the T section lagoons near Austin Road. Initially it was loafing in water up to its belly so that the legs were not visible and it looked quite dumpy but when it walked along it became the long necked elegant bird of previous reports. We did eventually see its long yellow legs. Sue and Xenia
