It's been a bright, chilly day today and although there haven't been large flocks about on the reserve, the variety of birds to see has been brilliant.
The pectoral sandpiper's back and there are little stint and curlew sandpiper about too. Ringed, golden and grey plover on the scrapes and wheatear and marsh harrier on the saltmarsh. Fantastic!
Combine this with lovely people to talk to and great autumnal weather and it's been a really good day.
Bring on tomorrow!
Add to that an unseasonal Whimbrel, a Knot, and a Dunlin with something odd on its foot...a shell maybe?! Couldn't tell! Great day out today!
