A couple of stars

Not to keen on the thunder at the moment so thought I'd actually do a post here on the relevant day instead of a few days after.  Out and about early this morning gave great views of this youngster so was well worth the effort.

This afternoon a trip to Black hole marsh revealed a partial summer plumage ruff which was rather fond of a common sandpiper though the feeling did not appear to be mutual

6 dunlin were close to the island hide together with 4 little ring plovers

The common sandpiper finally made its escape from the ruff

and finally a med gull was in the same pace as the last few afternoons
