Toorbul Sandfly

A small bay with mangroves at each end.  Waders tend to roost at this site if there is disturbance at the other sites, although this is the most likely spot where Grey Plover will be seen.  Another 200 m south of Sandfly Bay is the main Toorbul roost site.  This is a popular wader-watching spot, providing close views of many different species.  Sooty Oystercatcher, listed as rare in Queensland, are sometimes seen here and appear to alternate between this site and Kakadu Beach on Bribie Island
