When looking for the Greenshank at Fly Flatts yesterday evening I came across the remains of a bird on the waters edge in the NW corner. Through the bins I thought it was the Greenshank but on closer inspection , due to the size and markings and short wader legs, I believe it to be a Common Sandpiper. The remains were surrounded with paw prints from a fox.
All quiet up here at the back of the moon today with a miserable day of drizzle and heavy showers.
42 House Sparrows on and around the garden feeders at lunch time today but NK informed me that a pair of Sparrowhawks has raised 3 young in the Queensbury area so Lynda had better buy a bigger brush.
