Leg Flagged Red-necked Stint (1 Viewer)

[Neil Lawton]

Today we saw a leg flagged Red-necked Stint at Laem Pak Bia, green flag below the knee and black above on the right leg and a metal ring below the knee on the left leg.

Does anyone have any information on the bird or know where I can find out about it

Thanks

Neil

There is an Australian scheme that leg-flags red-necked stints. I saw one leg-flagged RNS on Rottnest Island, WA. Ornithologists I met that holiday (2010) pointed me to
Australian wader study group / flag recoveries.

Black over Green is a Thai bird. Could have been ringed at the King's project at LPB. /Tom
