Winter snowflakes

The two Snow Buntings present since yesterday were still in the shade of the bandstand and quite approachable. Once a number of other local birders and togs arrived it became impossible to get any close ups. Luckily no walker/dog disturbance. These birds are always a joy as they are quite confiding probably never having encountered people. The light was nice for pictures.

Being low tide the five Purple Sandpipers, four pictured here, were as distant as they can be an into the sun.

Didn't put any effort in for yesterday's Shore Lark which wasn't reported again after yesterday's initial sighting.
