I spent an interesting afternoon photographing the birds at Landing Lights Wetland at Barton Park.
Sharp-tailed Sandpiper
Quite a few of the usual residents were present including White-headed Stilts and White-faced Herons as well as various ducks. But there were also quite a few Sharp-tailed Sandpipers and one Black-faced Dotterel.
Here are some of my photos –

As well, a raptor flew overhead, very briefly. Possibly a Brown Goshawk.
