0700hrs- 1945hrs at Fly Flatts in a stiff, cold W>5 dropping W>3 mid watch . Clear blue sunny skies.
Migrants had piled in overnight with 11 Common Sandpipers counted just at the south end and midway along the west bank. Probably several more at the north end as well as Wheatear which gave me a minimum count of 18 covering the same area. The Common Sands were very fidgety with limited shoreline so most were on the west bank cobbles or around the boathouse area until the wind surfers began to arrive.
3 Oystercatchers were noisy before moving off towards Cold Edge whilst several Curlew and Lapwing were present.
