Friday Feathered Friend

Reporter Community News

Louise Thomas posted this picture during a recent trip to Japan. The plover looks very different to what we see in NZ.

"This is the little ringed plover (Charadrius dubius) in the Kasai Rinkai Park in Toyko Bay. A large park with wetlands, surrounded by city and full of birds (and bird hides). I met quite a few Japanese birders here. They were very helpful with IDs. The bird looks quite a lot like our black-fronted dotterel. Bird #48 in 2023."
