The Great Knot

While on a bird watching trip to Umm Al Quwain in the north of the United Arab Emirates, a teacher at the British School Al Kubairat in Abu Dhabi spotted an Endangered wading bird with a leg band. Following the trip he investigated further and discovered that the bird, a Great knot, had been ringed an astonishing 13,000 miles away by a scientist in Russia. As it turned out, that scientist was none other than Dmitry Dorofeev, one of the MBZ Fund’s grant recipients who was conducting field work in the Kamchatka Peninsula. Specifically, Dmitry was investigating Khairusovo–Belogolovaya estuary, on the Western coast of Kamchatka, as a key location for protected wader species on the East Asian–Australasian migratory flyway.
