Double-banded Plovers in the Lockyer Valley

Post by Rod Hobson »

Folks,

Courtesy of Harry Hines and Graham Leach two very good wader records from Seven Mile Lagoon for Saturday 4th July. On this day Harry and Graham saw a single Bar-tailed Godwit and four Double-banded Plovers* at the waterbody. Harry also reports seven Blue-billed Ducks from Lake Galletly on the same day.

Thanks to Harry for these records.

* The plover is new for the "Winter Beyond" list.

n.b. Seven Mile Lagoon is very restricted access to birdwatchers.

Regards,
Rod Hobson
