Knot Knots Waders Calidris Tenuirostris
Feathered Frequent Flyers - The Great Knots' Epic Migration Adventure!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Don Hadden, we witness the incredible journey of the Great Knots as they embark on their annual migration from the sub-arctic highlands of northern Siberia to the sunny shores of Australia. These adventurous aviators have chosen Cairns esplanade in Queensland as their preferred vacation spot, and boy, do they know how to make an entrance! With their non-breeding plumage on full display, these Australian migrants from the Arctic create a mesmerizing spectacle along the coastal beaches. As if choreographed by nature itself, these waders form tight-knit groups that gracefully dot the shorelines like delicate knots. It's no wonder bird enthusiasts flock to witness this awe-inspiring sight! With wings spread wide against a backdrop of golden sands and crystal-clear waters, these feathered travelers bring life and vibrancy to Australia's coastal paradise. So next time you find yourself strolling along one of Queensland's stunning beaches, keep an eye out for these remarkable guests from afar. They may be far away from home but are certainly making themselves at ease in our beautiful Australasian oasis. Don Hadden has truly captured a moment that reminds us all about the wonders of nature and its ability to connect distant lands through its magnificent creatures.
