Another late August day

Still stuff to look at today but nothing particularly mind-blowing. A Spotted Flycatcher showed well for a few minutes at Lunch Wood and three Whinchats together in the Banstead Woods sector of the recording area made for a good record. A single Meadow Pipit overhead, too.

By the way, I was in the Spurn area for a few days a couple of weeks back, didn't see much at all, the highlights being two moulting adult Curlew Sandpipers and a juvenile Spotted Redshank (on the same morning). I got a few shots of waders in flight that I'll hopefully get round to putting up here soon.
