Bird News from Spike Millington<\/p>\n
Despite the bustle of activity just two weeks ago, it seems that the shorebird migration at Gojan mudflats is over. Saturday evening revealed a grand total of 27 individual shorebirds on the rising tide: 3 Eastern Curlews<\/strong>, 23 Grey Plovers<\/strong> (all in dull, non-breeding plumage) and 1 Nordmann’s Greenshank<\/strong> (probably the same individual as two weeks ago). None were present on Sunday. Singles of Mallard<\/strong> and Eurasian Teal<\/strong> were the only waterfowl apart from the 200 or so Eastern Spot-billed Ducks<\/strong>. The regular patrolling Saunders’s Gulls<\/strong> included an apparent juvenile, in addition to several juvenile Black-tailed Gulls.<\/strong> A quick visit to Incheon Old Golf Course on Sunday also turned up no migrants, just regular displaying Dollarbirds<\/strong>, singing Grey-backed Thrushes<\/strong>, Black-naped Oriole<\/strong> and Common Cuckoo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bird News from Spike Millington Despite the bustle of activity just two weeks ago, it seems that the shorebird migration at Gojan mudflats is over.
