With Tom, I went to Frampton Marsh in Lincolnshire for the Oriental Pratincole. A new bird for both of us, we had great views, with all the relevant identification points clearly seen. We then spent the next couple of hours until dusk walking around this incredible inland reserve, and recorded the following:
Curlew Sandpiper x 4
Dunlin
Avocet – several.
Oystercatcher
Little Ringed Plover – several.
Ringed Plover
Ruff – several, including two summer plumaged males.
Brent Goose x c.200
Yellow Wagtail x 3
Wheatear x 4
