Wader surprise

Bob and Mike had a decent morning at Lytchett Bay last Saturday with over 70 birds ringed. These were mainly Sedge Warblers. The surprise of the morning came shortly after dawn when a Common Sandpiper was flushed into a small wader net that was erected in the slim hope of catching a Green sandpiper or two. Not complaining though, a lovely little wader!





 
Hopefully, there will be even more waders ringed at Lytchett this autumn/winter.
