Its always good to get down to the beach, especially at this time of year when its more or less deserted
I am not talking people , not one seen but i was in the company of many birds feeding as high tide approached
Its not often Curlew stay around to be photographed but this seemed to be more intent in finding food
The tideline was full of seaweed and this attracted 218 Turnstone and 78 Purple Sandpiper as well as around 150 Starling and a handful of Rock Pipit
Just off shore 85 Long Tailed duck fed and further out 2 Gt Northern Diver, 3 Golden eye and 6 Red Breasted Merganser
The purple sandpipers continue to feed within 10 feet
Most of the LT Ducks were either juvenile or female but a few males fed further out
