Observation details
Reported bird seen around the point on a higher tide with large group of other shorebirds. Bright rufous on upperparts and face with some rufous on sides of breast intermixed with dark streaking. Broad, rufous fringing on tertials and black centres on wing coverts with rufous fringing. Pale 'tram tracks' in the shape of a V on mantle and white throat seen well. Unique behaviour with bird running around like a wind-up toy, often with its rear end in the air. Appeared slightly longer-legged proportionally to nearby Red-necked Stints.
