Baird's Sandpiper re-visit, Lincolnshire

Sunday's forecast was one of sun and no wind so we headed back for the Baird's, hoping that it was still there. A Common Tern was flying and feeding and there was not a breath of wind so we had our fingers crossed that our luck would continue. We kept scanning along the waters edge but all we could see were many meadow pipits and pied wagtails but as we neared the area the waders were favouring we could see a few small waders on the water line. And there it was, feeding with the dunlin, the ringed plover had all departed. It showed no fear walking past us with a dunlin, we couldn't beleive our luck !  We have many, many pics, I can't decide, they are all so good so have plenty to show you, hope you like them !






It stayed with this dunlin the whole time we were there









Some stunning pics !!
