An Australian ringed bird seen in Kutch, India A tagged Sanderling was photographed at Modhva coast of Mandvi, Kutch district, Gujarat, India on 21 November 2013. [Coordinates 22.81°N 69.36°E]. A yellow flag engraved DBP on right tibia and an aluminium ring on its left tarsus were seen. The Sanderling was observed for 3 minutes walking not so normal like other Sanderlings. It was seen alone and not with the flock - we usually see Sanderlings in flocks. The Australasian Wader Study Group informed us that the Sanderling was ringed on 2 March 2013 at 80 Mile Beach, North West Australia. This is an important record, providing interesting information in the field of bird migration. J.K.
