Pretty quiet on Portland this morning - one Balearic
Shearwater past on the sea, a few
Whinchat and
Wheatear around the fields - so spent much of the day at
Ferrybridge waiting for the tide to push in a
nice selection of waders. Sitting in the mud waiting for them to come to us seemed like a good plan, but we didn't bank on children (who can be forgiven) and blokes laden with fishing gear (who can't) from diligently walking past us to flush everything in sight. Still, passable images of a very
buff
y Curlew Sandpiper, a single
Sanderling and a few
Dunlin were obtained. Bar-tailed Godwit and many Ringed Plover also present.
