I had an hour or two left on a morning off , birding had been good coming down the coast, I made a decision to go to Doonbeg to catch up with the American Golden Plover for the year that had been loitering all week.
Murf and Sean were at the roadside , I got to see the AGP and had a quick chat with the lads before heading back up along the coast quite content with the mornings birding..
Its that phone call , turn the car around.. a Wilsons Phalarope has just been found on the beach at Doonbeg, I was only a few miles away so headed back where the Wilsons Phalarope (my 1st for Clare ) was on the shoreline with 4 Ruff and a Grey Phalarope..
