As we all well know there is something very different about 2020. Following on from our first camping trip for 2020 we took another camping trip a bit further afield. Having observed the Cattle Egret in breeding plumage at the Derby Poo Ponds on June 19th we found ourselves at Windjana Gorge first thing the following morning.

Our first Pied Oystercatcher eggs for this year’s breeding season were laid early and were due to hatch last weekend. This is a sad outcome for the first attempt at breeding this year for Pied Oystercatchers. The post The first Pied Oystercatcher chick of 2020 appeared first on 10,000 Birds.

Non-breeding Pied Oystercatchers join flocks either to the north or south of Gantheaume Point. They do not attempt to breed for about seven years. We are very pleased that at least one Pied Oystercatcher chick has survived this year when there has not been much good news for 2020.

There are a pair of Pied Oystercatchers that reside at Gantheaume Point throughout the year and they last successfully bred in 2020. All of the Grey-tailed Tattlers are now in good breeding plumage as they get ready to migrate to the Northern hemisphere and breed. The Whimbrel were relaxed after the high tide too.

Greeney, also part of the Helm Identification series, it focuses on two avian families, combining the information necessary for identification with the latest research on taxonomy and behavior, particularly breeding behavior, and the latest conservation news and status. I love reading the descriptions of these birds’ breeding behavior.

On Lady Elliot Island in our southern Barrier Reef, where I visited in late 2020, the Black Noddies began breeding recently in 1985. Lady Elliot Island (LEI) was clearly a wonderful seabird breeding island as attested by the huge reserve of guano. The reason for their initial absence also explains their return.
