Our Curlews survived migration!

Today's high tide count saw 18 curlews. The same number as we had before they left in March for their migration to breed in Russia! Hoping one or two more may turn up this month as the babies take longer to complete their first, ever migration. Here's hoping! Just waiting to see if we get the Bar-tailed Godwits back too as they travel a different, longer route from Alaska.

Our journey of discovery managing a beach nesters breeding site.

21 September 2015 we found a pair of eggs sitting on the Deeban Spit beach. Thus our crazy journey began. So much to learn.

The opinions expressed in this blog are my own.

So much thanks goes to Sutherland Shire Council, Birdlife Australia and  NSW Office of Environment and Heritage as they have supplied equipment and research required to help ensure our shorebirds, resident or migratory, can survive into the future.
