Pectoral Sandpiper at Marsh Lane N.R.

Pectoral Sandpiper, Marsh Lane N.R.(I've managed to capture plenty of habitat on this shot and show how well the bird blends in to the background).

Sunday 5th August 2012
The Olympics or a Black Redstart just up the road at Seckington? I chose the Olympics. As it happened one of my better decisions I think. There will be another Black Redstart but the experience of the Athletics in the Olympic arena live will never be repeated. Today I needed a break from the Olympics or at least the endless repeats and fortunately a Pectoral Sandpiper turned up at Marsh Lane N.R.
