Something to lift the spirits after chasing the white throated needletail up the length of the east coast!

Awesome to see the juv Baird's sandpiper at LORP today, and amazing find by Steve Windle. Lifers roll on, 208 species for Devon, what's next. Great to see everyone enjoying this gorgeous wee wader. Great views by scope, distant for pics #bairdssandpiper #birding #lorp #rarebird

##ukbirding @RSPBFrampton #bairdssandpiper #curlewsandpiper #wheatear wet morning on the east coast. Bairds was a welcome sight, then a fleeting view of the juvenile Temms Stint. Waders of all shapes and sizes. Then a hop to South Anston for head only views of my 2nd migrating #dotterel #birds

Lovely buff-washed Sanderling at Boulmer today. Just wait until this turns up at some inland gravel pit #BairdsSandpiper 😉
