The details of this bird are as follows:
This bird was flagged Beachport, approximate co-ordinates 37deg 25min S, 140deg 2min E, which uses the flag combination Orange Engraved/Yellow, on 28/02/2008.
The resighting was a distance of approximately 7196 km, with a bearing of 333 degrees, from the marking location.
Given that the bird has probably another 6000 km to go before reaching the breeding grounds, it is amazing to think that the Turnstones that pass through HK travel at least 26,000 km each year.
