Midweek Waders

I was out after work today and thought I'd nip to Blacktoft to check through the waders as well as half hoping the recent Montagu's Harrier might put in an appearance, it didn’t, there was an increase in wader numbers generally from a fortnight ago although all the Avocets have departed now, highlights were the still present Wood Sandpiper and several Spotshanks plus now up to 10 Little Egrets, I was hoping for Curlew Sand and/or Little Stint but they don't seem to be as regular at this site these days.

Wood Sand not as close as last time

Juv Harriers still messing around

seven of the ten Egrets
