Black-tailed Godwits at Little Marlow

 A group of 13 Black-tailed Godwits were seen to land on the sand spit at Little Marlow Gravel Pit at about 8:15am.  I did get a brief view with binoculars mid morning but the birds were feeding in the vegetation and not easy to see.  I returned in the afternoon with my scope and was pleased to see that they were still present and in full view.

Black-tailed Godwits - 13 were present on the sand spit for most of the day.  This is possibly the largest flock recorded here.
