Observation details
Continuing bird at the Wunjunga wetlands. We searched for hours & only found it as we were driving out. Features we noted: male in breeding plumage - characteristic black (rather than brown) around the orbital eye ring; yellow legs which identifies it as Australian ssp; yellow orbital eye ring which is diagnostic for this species; white supercilium extends above the forehead & distinguishes this species from Ringed Plover & Semi-palmated Plover.
