Little Stint Surprise

A message from Adam Bassett at 9am found me in the shower, so I did not pick up the message for about 10 minutes.  I decided to pop down to Little Marlow to see the bird, only to receive a message from Adam to say that it had flown off with a Little Ringed Plover but maybe not gone far.  So I parked in Coldmoorholm Lane and checked out the east side of the sand spit.  No sign.  Adam was on the west bank and he could not see it.

The bird was not seen again all morning but it did re-appear about 5:30pm when Kevin Holt found it.  So back down to lake where Keven had been joined by Graham Smith.  Adam had also returned and I was soon on the bird.  Unfortunately very distant on one of the further areas of the sand spit.  So the photo below is pretty rubbish!!


Little Stint - My first at LMGP for some years.
