Empty Pied Oystercatcher nests

10,000 Birds

Last week I introduced you to the first Pied Oystercatcher chicks of 2019 and so far they are surviving. There was evidence of feral cats and now we have seen foxes around Broome we know they will also be a threat to our local shorebirds. Pied Oystercatcher chicks can swim, but maybe feral cats will too if they are hungry.
