Curlew Sands at last!

Quick visit to Spit hide..a hiker from Dover to Winchester using it as a stopover for the night! A few Chiffchaffs in the bushes (10+)  Meadow Pipits flying over plus House Martins and Swallows  (250+)

On to North Wall ....Grey Wagtail, more Swallows and House Martins moving east, Kingfisher on Breech Pool  and Wheatears and a Whinchat on fence posts in front of Honer farm.

The Curlew Sandpipers I missed yesterday now in Whites Creek...must return tomorrow at low tide with better light and better camera/lens!

Record shots ..............

Nice reflection!







Back at the harbour entrance for very high Spring tide at noon and noted 35 Little Egrets and 7 Grey Herons on Tern Island.
