Whiteholme
12 young Curlews, 1 Greenshank and a Common Sandpiper this morning.
I got a little excited when I saw the Curlew's short bills from a distance and thought they were Whimbrels.
Well done for persisting Jeff - and getting them identified in the end. Nothing more frustrating than not being sure! Good record with the Greenshank too.
