Overview
The Miranda Shorebird Centre is located on the Firth of Thames, a large tidal estuary, on North Island, New Zealand, about one hour's drive south-east of Auckland. It is one of the wintering grounds for the endemic Wrybill Plover (Anarhynchus frontalis). There are extensive tidal flats and saltmarsh, bordered by a shell bank chenier plain, where 129 bird species, including 41 waders have been recorded.
