Great blog article highlighting the amazing study undertaken by Birgita Hansen and colleagues to elucidate population estimates for waders using the EAAF. Not only does Birgita do important wader science, she deserves credit for the development and updating of our website!

#lathamssnipe are well on northward migration with one Aussie-tagged bird on Cape York and two Japanese-tagged birds back in Japan! lathamssnipeproject.wordpress.com/news/ for latest update 公益財団法人 日本野鳥の会 Jerra Wetlands

Millions of #shorebirds have left Australia, heading for China, Russia, Alaska etc. Recent stocktake by Birgita Hansen and colleagues suggests that several species are in serious decline: wadertales.wordpress.com/2022/02/10/how… #waders #ornithology

What's been happening to numbers of #waders #shorebirds that fly from Russia & Alaska to Australia and New Zealand, via the Yellow Sea? wadertales.wordpress.com/2022/02/10/how… 2022 paper by Birgita Hansen et al in BOU 👩🏻‍🏫👨🏿‍🏫🧕🏽👳🏽‍♂️ 🌈 #ornithology

Great blog addressing some of the findings in VWSG member Birgita Hansen's paper in BOU 👩🏻‍🏫👨🏿‍🏫🧕🏽👳🏽‍♂️ 🌈 a few months ago.

Looks like a beautiful #lathamssnipe count day in Queensland. Peterborough took the record again down south with 120 snipe. And a scabby abandoned industrial site on Norman Street in Ballarat took second prize with 97!

Time to do something then I think. I fear another tussle with another council 😒

I’m not totally convinced about the comparison but here’s some footage of an airborne Latham’s snipe (op cit)… youtu.be/a78i39l4uQw HT Birgita Hansen
