[18 January 1949]. doi:10.3853/j.0067-1975.22.1949.601 ISSN 0067-1975 Published by the Australian Museum, Sydney nature culture discover Australian Museum science is freely accessible online at http://publications.australianmuseum.net.au 6 College Street, Sydney NSW 2010, Australia FIELD NOTES ON THE GREY-TAILED TATTLER. By J. A. KEAST. The Australian Museum, Sydney. Habitat-preference amongst the migratory Charadriiformes is an aspect of study to which little attention has been paid in Australia. That these hardy and resolute birds, which bj-annually traverse half the world, should have reached a high stage of adaptability would appear certain. It is therefore surprising to find that some species restrict themselves in their choice of feeding grounds, a differential distribution that has led to a concept of rarity in the case of some comparatively common visitors. Such is the case as regards the Grey-tailed Tattler (Tringa brevipes) in New South Wales, as has been shown by observations made during recent years. The Official Checklist of the Birds of Au.stralia (1926) gives the range of the Grey-tailed Tattler in Australia as "Northern Australia, South Queensland, and Western Australia". Actually the species was known from Sydney a quarter of a century previous to this (North, 1898), but it was not until K. A. Hindwood made frequent observations at Long Reef, a rocky promontory near -Collaroy, that the species was shown to be a regular summer inhabitant of coastal New South Wales.

  • Birds of Nuvagapak Point, Northeastern Alaska
    Birds of Nuvagapak Point, Northeastern Alaska MALTE ANDERSON1 ABSTRACT.Fifty-two bird species were observedbetween 12 Juneand 4 July 1970 inthe coastal plain nearNuvagapak Point, northeastern Alaska. Habitat preferences were studied. Nesting was established or seemed probable in 25 species, and a further 5 may have been breeding. Among these were 2 species of Gavii- formes, 7 Anseriformes, 16 Charadriiformes, and 2 Passeriformes. Most birds were associated with some form of surface waters. Among the 8 predators, 6 were largely rodent hunters. Between mid June and early July, these species decreased markedly in abundance togetherwith Brown Lemmings. RÉSUMÉ.

I1 a étudié leurs préférences en ce qui regarde l'habitat. Pour 25 espèces, la nidification est certaine ou probable: 5 autres espèces ont peut-être niché. Parmi ces espèces, on compte 2 Gaviiformes, 7 Ansériformes, 16 Charadriiformes et 2 Passeriformes. La plupart des oiseaux semblent associés à une forme quelconque d'eaux de surface. Des 8 prédateurs, 6 sont largement chasseurs de rongeurs. Entre la mi-juin et le début de juillet, cesespèces ont beaucoupdiminué en abondance, en même temps que le lemming brun. PE3IOME.

  • The Occurrence and Identification of Red-Necked Stint in British Columbia Rick Toochin (Revised: December 3, 2013)
    The Occurrence and Identification of Red-necked Stint in British Columbia Rick Toochin (Revised: December 3, 2013) Introduction The first confirmed report of a Red-necked Stint (Calidris ruficollis) in British Columbia was an adult in full breeding plumage found on June 24, 1978 at Iona Island (see Table 1, confirmed records item 1). Recently another older sighting has been uncovered that fits the timing of occurrence for this species in BC and may be valid (see Table 2, hypothetical records item 1). Since the first initial sightings in the late 1970s, there has been a slow but steady increase in observations of this beautiful Asian shorebird in British Columbia and, indeed, across the whole of North America. With an increase in both observer coverage and the knowledge of observers, this species is now known to be of regular, and probably annual, occurrence during fall migration in coastal British Columbia. Additionally, this species is now recorded occasionally during spring migration, indicating that at least a few individuals may be successfully wintering farther south in the western hemisphere. Identification of this species is straightforward when presented with a full breeding- plumaged adult, but identification of birds in juvenile and faded breeding plumage can be very complicated due to the close similarities to other small Calidris shorebirds. This paper describes the distribution and occurrence of the species in B.C., and also examines the similarities of all plumages of Red-necked Stint to species with which it might be confused, most notably Little Stint (C. minuta), Semipalmated Sandpiper (C. pusilla), and Western Sandpiper (C.

  • Four Problem Stints
    British Birds VOLUME 79 NUMBER 12 DECEMBER 1986 Four problem stints P.J. Grant his paper discusses four records of stints Calidris, the identification of T which has been much debated. All demonstrate the advances which have been made in recent years, especially including the publication of Lars Jonsson's stint paintings (Jonsson & Grant 1984). Reference to that paper will be useful when considering the records described here, as many of the identification points are illustrated and more fully described therein. Several important lessons can be learned from these case histories. The last three in particular demonstrate some of the major pitfalls and difficulties occasionally involved in stint identification, and the high degree of care necessary with some problem stints. Also well demonstrated is the importance to the identification process of good photographic evidence, and it is again urged that positive steps be taken to obtain a representative series of photographs (preferably colour transparencies) when a rare stint is suspected or identified. (Naturally, such steps should always have due regard for bird, habitat and other observers.) 1. Dungeness, Kent, 6th to 9th September 1965 The identity of this bird has been discussed in detail already (Brit. Birds 59: 543-547, plate 79; 72: 264-275, plates 127-129). It is again portrayed here (plate 306). It was originally identified as a Baird's Sandpiper C. bairdii, but [Brit. Birds 79: 609-621, December 1986] 609 610 Four problem stints 306.

  • Peeps and Related Sandpipers Peeps Are a Group of Diminutive Sandpipers That Are Notoriously Hard to Tell Apart
    Peeps and Related Sandpipers Peeps are a group of diminutive sandpipers that are notoriously hard to tell apart. They belong to a subfamily of subarctic and arctic nesting sandpipers known as the Calidridinae (in the sandpiper family, Scolopacidae). During their migrations, when most residents of North America have the opportunity to watch them, mixed flocks of calidridine sandpipers scurry about on mudflats, feeding at the edge of the retreating tide, or swarm aloft, twisting and turning like a dense school of fish. These traits, in a group of birds that look so much alike to start with, give bird watchers nightmares. Fortunately for Alaskans and visitors to our state, Alaska is an excellent location to view and identify calidridine sandpipers. The early summer breeding season is the easiest time of the year to distinguish the various species, not only because they are in breeding plumage and are more approachable than at other times of the year, but also because each species performs a characteristic courtship display with unique vocalizations. For the avid birder, Alaska has the additional attraction of being one of the best places in North America to view exotic Eurasian species. General description: Three peeps are abundant summer residents and breeders in Alaska—the least, semipalmated, and western sandpipers (Calidris minutilla, C. pusilla, and C. mauri) [all lists in order by size]. Another four species from Eurasia may also be seen—the little, rufous-necked, Temminck's, and long-toed stints (“stint” is the British equivalent for peep) (C. minuta, C. ruficollis, C. temminckii, C. subminuta). These seven species range from 5 to 6½ inches (15-17 cm) in length, and weigh from 2/3 to 1½ ounces (17-33 g).

Genus Calidris – Most, but not all, species migrate south in their alternate (breeding) or juvenal plumage, molting largely once they reach their more southerly wintering grounds. – Most species nest in the arctic, some farther north than others.
