CURLEWS


After the rain stopped this morning I decided for a change I'd pop over to the flashes at Upton Warren.Parked up not long after 10.30 AM to find a bright rather pleasant morning's weather.

There had been a Sabine's Gull reported there yesterday but I had been told that the chances of it still being there were less than nil.This was soon proved to be correct as there were no birders about.In fact very soon I had the big hide to myself.

It was a good job that up to 15 Curlews were on show because despite  a fairly long stay in the hide there was nothing else of note about.I believe that Curlews are getting scarce these days so I was pleased to be able to get some decent shots.
