Lossie Estuary - Waders

There weren't quite as many waders present as on Wednesday but the low tide was just rising and they were grabbing what food they could before it disappeared!

First bird in view as I parked the car was a single Whimbrel...




But by far the most plentiful were (c115) Ringed Plover. This one being the 'alpha male'?




And of course the ever present Dunlin!






There were c30 Sanderling and I'll post some pics of these separately...
