After a disappointing dash to Spurn yesterday, missing this Great Snipe by 10 minutes when it flew into the garden of Southfield Farm, not to emerge again before dusk. Was more than happy, and surprised when it came back on our pager again on Sunday morning. So with flask and a pack-up we set off yet again to Spurn. We couldn't believe just how well it showed and how it walked across the drive of Warrenby Cottage with no fear of people whatsoever. Thanks for letting us into your garden, we had excellent views. After a quick trip down the road to see the Barred Warbler, the snipe had crossed the road and was quite happily feeding in the ditch across the road from the Blue Bell café.
Was nice to catch up with Wayne and Clair who we haven't seen in ages!
