Burgh Castle

Had a lovely morning at Burgh Castle, arrived at high tide so there were just a few waders roosting.
As the tide dropped 5 Greenshank, 2 Summer plumaged Spotted Redshanks, 2 Common Sandpipers, 9 Whimbrel and an Avocet came into view.
A Pinkfooted goose was lingering with a handful of Greylags and Canadas.
Marsh Harriers put on a great close display and a hybrid hoodie turned up.
Butterflies were Orange Tips, Large and Small Whites and a Green Veined White. A Hairy Dragonfly put in a nice early appearance.
Later on we missed a Spoonbill. Doh!
Lovely morning in the sun.
