Today I went to Stockton Sandpit - a very good wetlands area for migratory and non-migratory birds. There weren't many though, because it was high tide. I went on to Stockton Beach and walked along the breakwall. I enjoyed watching the crested terns plunge-diving for fish but had no hope of photographing them
Red-necked avocets
White-faced heron
Crested tern
Siver Gull
Black-shouldered kite
Australian darter
Very nice series of pics, Birdgirl. That place has quite a variety of species. That's a nice close-up of the Darter.

Enjoyed the photos - living in the hills it is nice to see some of the coastal birds. Lovely!
Excellent Birdgirl, loved em all,thankyou for sharing.
This was supposed to be Stockton Sandspit (not sandpit!) and silver gull
HI Birdgirl
I was at stocton the other day and seen the avocets but didn't get a photo before they flew away top shots.
