on the shoreline

Calidris maritima
syn. Arquatella maritima, Arquatella maritima maritima, Charadrius maritima, Ereunetes maritimus, Erolia maritima, Tringa maritima

Purple Sandpiper
possibly with a couple of preening
Arenaria interpres
Ruddy Turnstone

not totally sure of this ident, as waders aren't my forté, but the beaks look more like the purple sandpiper than other Calidris species? ... i guess what i'm saying is i need a better camera!

quite a busy but fairly relaxed day
strange to come home to no dug, who is off to luxury spa accommodation
probably a quiet night in before tomorrow morning's flight
