Turnstones.

Report. R. Lane. 26th August 2011
A brief visit to Par today showed little of interest on the Pool, except 1 x Little Egret and 2 x Sand Martins overhead.
             The Bay was not much better, the tide was in and there were 7 x Turnstones working the tide-line and very tame (migrants?), allowing approach within 10ft (unusual)
             'Best of the Bunch' was a lone, adult winter MED GULL amongst the BHGulls at the water's edge (probably the same recent wintering? individual?). No juvs seen this year, disappointing.

Thank you for the report Roger. The waders are starting to come back. Should be getting busy real soon.
