LRP and Grey Plovers

I have been overseas far too much and as a result I have neglected my blog and the local patch! Therefore it was good to be back on the patch this afternoon where two Sandwich Terns on the rocks below Otter Ledge were my first this year. On the Otter Estuary were two Grey Plovers (very different in structure) and a bird that I rarely see on the patch.

March 20th  - I was pleased to see my first Little Ringed Plover of the year on the scrapes.
