Site summary
The IBA has regularly supported more than 1% of the global population of the near threatened Hooded Plover, often more than 1% of the global population of the Musk Duck, and sometimes more than 1% of the global population of Banded Stilt. However, recent counts suggest that all species are declining and the system may not continue to meet IBA thresholds.
