Celebrity guest stars on Petone Beach - red knots/huahou

Louise from Woburn

On Monday there were three, and today there are four red knots (Calidris canutus), aka lesser knots or huahou, on Petone Beach. A completely new species for me. Has anyone ever seen them on Petone Beach before this week? I certainly haven't. I read that they have come all the way from Russia or the New Siberian Islands!
