Beachcombing

After a dodgy start the clouds broke and it was time to hit the beach again. The tide was out but the sea was still good for a swimming dog. There were a few clusters of gulls present which I checked through hoping for something unusual. I eventually found it...a lone Sandwich Tern (P.133, H.92)...

A Cormorant was also commuting between the local fish ponds and the beach finally settling on the tide line...

As we were leaving a couple of Whimbrel circled over the sea some 800yds offshore.

Waders returning in force now with an impressive total (12) of Curlew Sandpipers at Kilnsea Wetlands. Might pop down tomorrow...
