Observation details
Found independently by Charisse Klassen and her husband in the morning at the Shorebird Cell, and by Chris Gaffan later in the day at this location. FOY. Could not pass up the incredibly rare opportunity to see these (2 individuals) in full breeding plumage! We were standing at the Shorebird Cell when Kate casually mentioned that they were back, as we had missed them on our way to Hillman, so we sprinted to the car. Large shorebirds with long upturned bicoloured pink/black bills, notable pale supercilium. Breeding-plumaged birds with rich dark rufous underparts, others with lesser degrees of rufous.
