Common Sandpiper




Selection of pics of the bird thought possibly to be a Spotted Sand. Many thanks to the Port of Felixstowe for allowing access to confirm the birds identification. Please note that to see this bird views are only possible from the View Point car park with the bird at a distance. It is not recommended to even try in windy conditions but to choose a time when it is calm and when the tugs are out working in the estuary & not moored up blocking views. Please be patient & expect to come back several times before seeing the bird. Please do not ask the Port for access as the bird is in a working area.
