Hello everyone, made an account here hoping someone might be able to help us out here. We saw about a thousand of these birds at Buffalo Creek, Darwin NT on Sunday the 21st of January, 8pm local time. We have some photos but can’t quite ID them. The closest thing I think they are is white-rumped sandpipers or Stilt sandpipers, but apparently these are incredibly rare for the area. They don’t look right either for curlew sandpipers, either.
Hope you bird experts can help us out.
Cheers,
Noah and Luke
