ANOTHER MEGA ON BOWLING GREEN MARSH .

Late this afternoon I had a call telling me that there was a Juvenile WILSON`S PHALAROPE on Bowling Green Marsh in Topsham ! so I shot off down there & Matt Knot the finder of the bird soon put me on it , the bird was very active in & out of the water & at one point the bird flew off with some GREENSHANK but lucky for some it came back again .
Once again with the Marsh the birds are always distant so I got what photo`s I could .
On the Marsh there was also a Juvenile MEDITERRANEAN GULL , 2 Juvenile CURLEW SANDPIPER , 2 GREEN SANDPIPER , & a RINGED PLOVER .
