HUDSONIAN GODWIT – the bird has just been relocated at the Kabeljous River estuary at -34.005253, 24.930597. It was looked for for a couple of hours this morning at the Seekoei River estuary without success. It appears, based on previous sightings that have now also come to light, that this bird is moving between the Kabeljous and the Seekoei River estuaries, so potential twitchers will need to cover both sites if they are looking for it – reported by Pieter Scholtz.

 

Kind regards

Trevor
