A spoon-billed sandpiper was spotted in south China’s Hainan Province this week, the third time the endangered bird has been seen on the tropical island.
Luo Lixiang with the Xinying Mangrove National Wetland Park was on patrol when he unwittingly photographed the sandpiper on Wednesday. He did not notice the rare bird until he checked the photographs later at night. Spoon-billed sandpipers are listed as “critically endangered” by the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
