An early start and fortunately the Long Mynd was quiet (the lull before the Bank Holiday storm!) The Dotterel pair in the mown Bracken stubble adjacent to the Burway were showing really well, just a shame the sun never shone!
The female first, the most confiding of the pair...
Moving in the right direction!
Followed by short runs here and there in search of food...
The male was more stand offish but eventually strode in close...
Still seems to be developing into summer plumage...
Probably the most 'open' view possible in this habitat!
I even remembered to capture a short video clip of the female so here she is tapping her feet and scurrying around looking for worms!
