Detalhes da observação
***rare. See photos. Here's ID info I compiled from other people and the botw account of this species. This is likely young bird that hasn't bred this year, in basic plumage. long, white supercilium, fairly extensive white on forehead, broadly white on the breast and broken chest band (compared to siberian sand plover, as well as more buffy color), paler nape, ear coverts uniform with crown, white flanks. Probably schaeferi ssp. most likely from range with heavier bill. Also looking at the photos there are probably 2 different individuals. I'm putting a conservative count of 1. Please contact me if you have any questions about this ID, or if it's something else. ----------- Lifer! I have little experience with sand plovers, but I first noted a plover that was larger than the nearby little ringed and kentish plovers, more elongated and less compact in size, and heavier bill, definitely seemed like the odd one out. First landed in front of me around 20m away with a flock of little ringed, on west side of water at the southern flooded area of the reservoir bay, and later started preening on the other side (east) of the water, standing on one leg, before foraging again. couldn't quite pin out what it was, merlin said greater sand plover first, which was a rarity, and I thought that was likely. Tibetan sand plover isn't even an option on the ebird mobile list, only siberian is. did not call the entire time, associated loosely with the other plovers, did not see actively in flight. was still there when I left. also apparently first record for Xinyang as well as Southern henan as far as I'm aware on inat and birdreport.cn. first reported for Henan on ebird, although data is more lacking on this platform.
