FRIDAY 16th JULY . 2004

News that the BROAD BILLED SANDPIPER had been found at Dawlish Warren had me & local birder Brian Heasman making the journey down to see if we could get good views of the bird .
I was also trying to get better shots of the bird ! but by the time that we arrived the light was bad & fading , so i got the best shots i could .
But the bonus was getting photo`s of a ROSEATE TERN the first time that i have got shots of these birds , the bird was sat on the poles outside the hide with some COMMON TERN & plenty of SANDWICH TERN .
