Spring brings the arctic migrants back to NZ, and we found a single Turnstone at Foxton Beach on Saturday 30th September. We also spotted a Hudsonian Godwit in the flock of about 120 Bar-tailed Godwits, which is more unusual. The Turnstone was hanging out with the Godwits, and with 6 Banded Dotterel on the sand near the parade.
Lucky you seeing the turnstone.. it’s beautiful!
