So today, I'm sharing the Black-fronted Dotterel. Two little birds sat safely across the lake on a sand bar. The Berrinba Wetlands was previously an inland sand mine so there is an abundance of sand.

Wild Bird Wednesday: Black-fronted Dotterel
I was going to share the third of my "lifers" from Burleigh Heads today... but Michael & I went out on Sunday afternoon to the Berrinba Wetlands and I came across a few new lifers. It seems every time I go out birding, I discover new birds that I haven't come across before - sign of someone relatively new to birding. Exciting!!

Nice shots and a really cute little bird. Love the spots of bright color.
Te małe ptaszki są urocze i mają piękne zdjęcia. Pozdrawiam.
These little birds are cute and have beautiful pictures. Yours.
Great photos of the little Dotterels. At present there are a couple on one of the shorebird roosts up here but I have never seen them during the summer when there are so many migratory birds around. Possibly they just get lost in the crowd!
Your Dotterels are beautiful birds. Lovely photos. Thanks for sharing your world bird.
it's quite exciting isn't it to see a new bird to you for the first time AND to capture it in your camera too. The water birds seem to be a little elusive I've found so getting their photos is a big buzz; lovely ones you have here of the dotterel Liz
Beautiful little shorebirds!

Cute little birds. They were a lovely surprise - finding birds we didn't know about before. Great pictures Liz :)
Isn't it great to be a new birder? Congrats on the lifers Liz! You certainly got some excellent shots of these little cuties!
