Geoff texted to say a pair of Little Ringed Plover were in the NE corner of LFGP, 2 Lapwing, 1 Common Sandpiper and the long staying Dunlin too. When I arrived about 30 minutes later, just 1 LRP was on show and whilst we could not relocate the Dunlin or Common Sandpiper, the Lapwing were still there and now 2 Redshank and a lone Oystercatcher.
This is certainly the longest a Dunlin has ever lingered and no doubt a long time since we have been blessed with 6 wader species at any one time.
Just a few miles to the SSE a Whimbrel was at Moor Green and I don't
feel it is out of the question for it to pass our way, maybe it already
did?
