sooty mangabey 14 Apr 2019 @Andrew Swales You’re right. A Kittlitz’s Plover (Charadrius pecuarius)? I didn’t think these were at Walsrode, but apparently they are!

vogelcommando 14 Apr 2019 Yes indeed a Kittlitz’s plover. Already at the end of the 1980s a small group of this species was kept at Walsrode but I'm sure this one is a newer addition to the collection.

TeaLovingDave 14 Apr 2019 Definitely a newer addition - the species was not present when I visited in 2016. A very nice species indeed, in any case!

Daniel Sörensen 14 Apr 2019 @TeaLovingDave Seems like they have been seen at the park every year since 2015 at least according to ZTL.

TeaLovingDave 14 Apr 2019 @Daniel Sörensen I'll have to check my notes from the time then it is possible I had forgotten about them!
