Can you spot the Sandpiper?
Same picture, but cropped heavily to reveal the Sandpiper.
Let me know when that tide's coming in won't you

Common Sandpiper
The other day, I missed a Common Sandpiper on my patch. Work got in the way of my birding once again. On Saturday though, I made my current pilgrimage to Macclesfield Forest. The heavy rain made me sit in the car for a few minutes. I could see the stoney bank of Teggs Nose reservoir and thought, I'll just have look through the binoculars to see if there is one. I put the window down and there it was. A Common Sandpiper bang on cue. Lovely little bird and very dainty looking in flight. I managed a few shots when I eventually got out of the car, but the light was poor and the rain was still falling, so they are quite grainy.
