Silver Gull & Curlew Sandpiper : Moreton Bay
You can only see EXIF info for this image if you are logged in.

Silver Gull : Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae
Curlew Sandpiper : Calidris ferruginea
Moreton Bay, Queensland​

One of our local 'seagulls' spent ten or so minutes standing amongst a few dozen refugees from arctic Siberia, and then, without any warning that I could discern, barged through the little fellas causing one of them to execute an emergency take-off.

In a month of two, the Curlew Sandpipers will be gone: back to their breeding grounds fringing the far north-west Pacific.
