Fly FlattsLuddenden Dean

5 Dunlin this afternoon, 4/possibly 5 Common Sandpipers and 1 Redshank along with Wheatear and Pied Wagtail sheltering on the embankment from the strong wind.
(Photo not up to your Dunlin standard Brian! but I gave it a try)
Nothing doing at High Brown Knoll - strong winds and heavy rain - just a Golden Plover braving the elements and 6 Red Grouse.
Pied Flycatcher (m), Redstart and Nuthatch along with Treecreeper and Blackcaps and lots of Willow Warblers in the dean. Also Green and Great Spotted Woodpeckers seen.
