Pectoral Sandpiper

A great find for Steve Dudley but unfortunately only a couple of people had permission to visit the private site the bird favoured. Another bird or perhaps the same one appeared on the High Wash of the Nene the day after during a large influx of the species into the UK. A difficult subject for digiscoping.
