Pretty hot yesterday…

In addition to the Bar-tailed Godwits and Great Knot there were also several Terek Sandpiper and Mongolian Plover, 3 or 4 Red-necked Stint and a lone Green Sandpiper (the latter not on the beach).

A few Wood Sandpipers were also around as well as some Kentish Plover. Little Ringed Plovers are summer breeders and are in many locations now.
