went looking to photograph a colour ringed R Plover i spotted yesterday and came back with a Purple Sandpiper....
a little over exposed on the white but hey you can just make out the purpley tint on the upper wing Smile it was a bit of a grabshot really with my boots clinging on to the limpits
(maybe you wont notice the white it if you squint a little)

thanks as ever for the interest, all much appreciated

One of those birds that I've not knowingly seen. A super image, Maggie, he looks proud as Punch on that rock!
