Brascote GP
What a site! We get a bit wader starved in Thornton but my first visit here was excellent. Two Little Stint were there but didn't hang around and flew of north after about half an hour. Dunlin, Ringed Plover, Oystercatcher and Curlew were also present as were Reed Warbler, Common Tern, Sand Martin and Grey Partridge. There for less than an hour but some excellent birding.......

Might have to check the place out myself. Carl Baggott has been going there for a while with some good results.
It's good for us to have as it's only down the road and I'm certain we will see some good stuff over the next few years. Despite the waders it was just nice to see Grey Partridge!!
Russ have you been suppressing Little Stints in spring!?!
As I think it's a description species for spring birds!
Is it? I had no idea. If I had realised the significance I would have mentioned it other than on the blog
