White rumped Sandpiper and Choughs

 It was a dull overcast quiet day overall , not much light for decent photos but plenty of birds available around the beach at Seafield.

Great to get to see another White rumped Sandpiper among the Waders. The bird had been found 2 days previous and hopefully it stays a little longer.

The Choughs were noisy with 2 pairs squabbling over seaweed space always entertaining and Seafield is a good place to see them up close

White rumped Sandpipers at Seafield

 Great to see some Waders back at Seafield after a very quiet autum here.

2 White rumped Sandpipers and a Little Stint were along the high tide shoreline with Purple Sandpipers, Sanderling and Dunlin. The high tide had brought the birds up close onto the seaweed.

A few disturbances, eg: a Kestrel was putting the birds up and you could see the 3 odd birds out among the flocks as they take off ,do the rounds and return.
