If the distance wasn't enough to hamper the camera lens then heat haze surely was but despite that, through the scope, the Pectoral Sandpiper feeding along the edge of the pool behind the storage building looked superb in the strong sunlight. Every feather immaculate. Photos don't do it justice. And the first at this site in just over 28 years!!
Earlier, fabulous Indian summer weather ( t-shirt n' shades) at TH was a pleasure but just a high inbound Marsh Harrier coming in from the west, the Ruff still and a few usual small waders was about it. Speckled Woods were particularly abundant today and the Ivy Bees are now popping up in other areas. 150+ Starlings are liking the perches offered up by the yachts in the harbour.
