Australia has a number of small plovers, or dotterels. This one, the black-fronted dotterel, is one of the commonest and most widely distributed, appearing wherever there is some water. These were patrolling the edges of a small reservoir at Fowlers Gap, a research station in arid northwestern New South Wales, about 100 km north of Broken Hill. They were rather shy and difficult to photograph. |
