At last! Got 'em on my garden list. They flew high and fast over Carew Cheriton at 17.22 precisely. So fast, and my field of view being restricted by trees, I didn't have time to count them.
Radford Pill, 15.30-1600, waders: Lapwing, easily 1500>, golden plover >500, greenshank, redshank, dunlin, teal, wigeon. 1 green sandpiper - possibly the same bird I see occasionally on my neighbour's pond in Carew Cheriton, half a mile away? Also, 29 black-tailed godwit. One had coloured leg rings - white upper left, orange upper right - with just binoculars, I couldn't see if there was any lettering (or where the BTO ring was). Who is colour-ringing black-tailed godwit?
Cheers
Richard Ellis
