Birds of the Port Wakefield Area

from a book of the same name by Paul Taylor and Wikipedia Common Greenshank Tringa nebularia

Common greenshanks are brown in breeding plumage, and grey-brown in winter. When in water, they can appear very similar to marsh sandpipers but are distinguished by the shape of the lower bill which gives it an upturned appearance to the bill. They have long greenish legs and a long bill with a grey base. They show a white wedge on the back in flight. They are somewhat larger than the related common redshank. The usual call is a rapid series of three short fluty notes syllabilized as teu-teu-teu.

Like most waders, they feed on small invertebrates, but will also take small fish and amphibians.

As their name suggests, Common Greenshanks are common and their ringing call reinforces their presence. Like other waders, it is a spring and summer visitor, although one or two birds may be seen in winter. Occasionally occurs away from the coast at salt lakes and even farm dams.

INKERMAN LANDFILL COMMUNITY REFERENCE GROUP. (ILCRG) June 2019 The ILCRG has held meetings at the Inkerman Land Fill site at Inkerman since September 2018. During this time tours of the site has taken place to see how waste is handled/managed. New initiatives have been put in place to improve the management waste and improve safety.

1. Tarps are now being deployed to encase the waste materials overnight (pictured) saving up to 200 tonne of dirt previously used to cover the waste and having to be recovered the next morning prior to commencement of operations.

2. New Litter nets have been placed strategically around the cells to control any litter that may be blown around during strong winds. These new nets create a safer environment for the workers due to them not having to work in close proximity to the nets.
