Immediately stop what you’re doing and watch this video of stone curlews
14 more bush stone-curlews are now home on Milawul!

Our most ambitious release yet: 30 experiment days, 200hrs of behaviour data, & a new trial releasing birds with flight feathers intact (less time on roads, faster dispersal, we hope 🤞)

Sourced from partners Australia-wide for genetic diversity.

Some more curlew photos for World Curlew Day.
(Not to be confused with stone-curlews which aren't really curlews at all.)
Port Clinton Beach, Yorke Peninsula.

My camera is broken, dammit. So some Bush-stone Curlews from the archives. They were one of the birds that got me into bird photography. I'd walk past a pair on the way to work, apparently drab brown birds from a distance, but I started noticing how beautiful & expressive they were.

Big lens is still broken, but fortunately the Bush Stone-Curlews at the Mt Coot-tha Botanic Gardens are so relaxed (except about crows flying over) you can use a portrait lens.

Beach Stone-curlews (Esacus magnirostris) are found in northern coastal areas of Australia and are one of its largest shore birds, they're beautiful! #bird #drawing #illustration

More than 100 Eurasian Stone-curlews have fledged from an RSPB nature reserve in Wiltshire since a former farm was transformed into a haven for the rare breeding bird 20 years ago:

Beautiful day on Salisbury Plain. I saw loads of wildlife - Gr8 Bustards, Stone Curlews, Red Kites, Yellowhammers, Corn Buntings, Roe Deer, Hares, Red Deer and more. Only problem? The weather was too good!! All pics & videos were badly affected by heat haze. End clip? 3 Stone Curlews 😂 #UKBirding
