After breeding in SW Tasmania, birds move N in Mar-Apr through Bass Strait islands, notably King I where
some birds stop over Apr-Jun and a few remain throughout the non-breeding period, but most wintering from
late Mar to early Oct on SE Australian coast between the Coorong and Gippsland, the majority of the tiny
population concentrating at Port Phillip Bay and the coastal dunes between Kingston and the Victoria
border. (del Hoyo J, Elliott A, Sargatal J (eds), 1997)
