More red knots in breeding plumage
Yesterday we were at Pukorokoro tidal wetlands at Miranda. Saw these red knots (one in breeding plumage) amongst many other birds. Met a lovely man, Keith, at the shorebird centre.
Then last night it was featured on Endangered Species Aotearoa on TVNZ. With Keith!
