Friday 16th May: Temminck's Stint still + Sanderling
This morning the weather was overcast, scattered showeres but calm calm so it had rather a nice fresh feel.
This morning at the north end of the floods the TEMMINCK'S STINT was still present still hanging out with 10 RINGED PLOVER and 2 summer plumage DUNLIN. There was no sign of the wood sandpiper nor the drake garganey from yesterday.

There were quite a few gadwall around, a few grey herons and the usual large number of mute swans.
At around lunch-time 2 SANDERLING turned up, one in winter plumage and one in summer.
