It’s been a hot one
Wow it’s been a hot humid summer this year. I’ve hardly left the house in the last 5 or so weeks…
But today the temperature dipped below 30 for the first time in what seems like ages and it was even breezy with low clouds. The waders had returned to the beaches anyway.
Hot temps will return tomorrow or the day after according to the forecast.
I might even get a get a good night’s sleep in this lull.
Also around were Red-necked Stint, Whimbrel and Kentish Plover as well as Eastern Marsh Harrier and lots of Great Egret.
Return of the Night Herons
The Night Herons are back at their usual late summer spot…………….
But I was concentrating on waders. The only place I could get near this Terek Sandpiper was literally the only shady place on the coast.
Terek BIFs
There were several Terek Sandpipers just outside town yesterday.
