GREAT NORTHERN DIVER & PURPLE SANDPIPER 17/1/2014





Popped down west to Penzance this morning to top up the year list, main object was to get the Purple Sandpipers at Jubilee pool.
I did manage to find Nine in one group huddled on the rocks and managed to get a few decent images,also close in were  couple of Great Northern Divers and these also gave good photo opportunities.
So all in all a good morning, and on the way back I stopped at Hayle Estuary and got a few more species on the list.
So the new ones were Purple Sands, Sanderling, Black-Necked Grebe,Dunlin,Ringed Plover,
Golden Plover, Grey Plover and Greenshank., the list now stands at 87.
