CommentI was watching a Silver Gull and a Pelican disputing ownership of a dead mudskipper when this Beach Stone-curlew flew in and stayed for about 5 minutes before flying off, disappearing whence it came. Considered a ‘near threatened’ species it was a thrill to see one locally and also get a few tolerable images.
