Little Stint

I was really chuffed to find a juvenile Little Stint on Budleigh beach this evening. I had seen what I suspected was a Little Stint, only very briefly in flight with a small group of Dunlin on the estuary a little earlier but failed to relocate it. However, I decided to give it another try this evening and checked the beach to find this cracker feeding within metres of me on a lovely sunny evening.
Little Stint is rare on the patch and my last sighting was on 11 Sep 2013. Happy Days!
