Are these Spoon- billed Sandpipers on an Estuary near you?
Nine Spoon-billed Sandpipers were artificially reared on the breeding grounds this summer and were released as juveniles. All migrated in mid-August and we hope that they will be seen on autumn migration or in winter. Each bird has a lime green leg flag with a single character engraved on it and a single colour ring.
The chance of a one of these being seen is low but it would be fantastic if we did find them. All records of Spoon-billed Sandpipers are valuable so please send them to…..
There are still gaps in our knowledge of the migration routes and wintering areas but , with your help we will fill them. |
