I went up to Blacktoft Sands last night for the marsh sandpiper.
Its a bird that I have been hoping to see for a while.
The views were inevitably quite distant but with good light it gave some decent views.
It kept walking in and out of view until eventually it was flushed by a marsh harrier.
It later re-located on to singleton lagoon but i was long gone by then.
I am always impressed at the photographic conditions created by good light and reflections at Blacktoft.
Its a shame there is nowhere else like it on the Humber because as I said most of the stuff is quite distant.
