A stone on the beach
On the way back to the entrance, I found another Beach Thick-knee, well I think it was a different one as it was a slightly different part of the beach from the first two. What a conundrum, thick-knee or stone-curlew LOL- delia todd

Confused
Not only are Beach Thick-knees called stone-curlews sometimes, they also moved to another Genus meaning they are known by another scientific name by some LOL But these were our main target for them, as they're not seen everywhere.- delia todd

Sentry Duty
Two names this guy has, but both agree that he's a Beach LOL. Some call him a Thick-knee and others a Stone-Curlew. And not only that, he's now on his third scientific name! Confused? I don't think he cares. And I don't - just glad to find a bird I'd really wanted to see. But what a lovely...- delia todd

Thick or stone?
We soon had the main object for that trip under our belts, although we'd seen them before, they're such wonderful birds. They've a couple of names, "Thick-knee" and "Stone-Curlew", everyone agrees that they're prefixed with Beach though. They've also been placed in two...- delia todd

Beach Thick-knee
This was one of a pair found on Rainbow Beach, seemingly undisturbed by all the people driving with their 4WD vehicles on the beach! More from my birding adventures at LOST in BIRDING http://www.samwoodsbirding.blogspot.com- Sam Woods

Beach stone-curlew ( thick-knee )
This is one of a pair that had two chicks last year but hve returned to the area they laid. Hopefully the chicks have moved on to a safe haven elsewhere.- tcollins
