Upper Rangitata- braided river wilderness


The upper Rangitata- fresh snow- very invigorating !

First wrybill chick for season -2011

Banded dotterel just returned from holiday in South Australia

Sighted a banded dotterel last week banded in South Austraila in the upper Rangitata River - just shows how dependent our wading birds are on a range of habitats for their survival . I will post photos of bird in due course.
Good to be back for fourth season in upper Rangitata- a true braided river wilderness.
