Where highlands meet lowlands

10,000 Birds

I haven’t done much birding during the past few decades in my native United States. But I suspect that it is very difficult there to find a prime site that someone else hasn’t already discovered.

Sadly this is rarely the case along our coastline here in Broome. Last week I introduced you to the first Pied Oystercatcher chicks of 2019 and so far they are surviving. Their parents are moving them through the dunes to the north and they will soon be closer to the reef during the upcoming bigger tides.
