Pectoral Sandpiper.


Draycote Water.

On hearing of a rarety at Draycote Water, Warwickshire,I got up at the crack of dawn to get down there early......and it was well worth it! I managed to get these images of this beautiful juvenile Pectoral Sandpiper. This lovely bird was probably blown in on last week's strong winds...all the way from America. The last time a Pectorial Sandpiper was reported here was in 2005. I felt really honoured to have seen it.It was also very nice to see all the lads and Dianne again.
