Another Sanderling

With lots of waders cropping up at inland sites across the country today, there was the prospect of something good being on the patch, and I was feeling a bit frustrated stuck at work. However, Carl put my mind at rest when he confirmed that he'd been round Collingham (amongst other places), and had had a party of Dunlin and Ringed Plovers on Ferry Lane Lake but not much more. Nevertheless, I had a trip out there before hockey tonight; no sign of Carl's birds, but there was a Sanderling instead - seemingly different from Sunday's bird. Aside from this, there were 16 Common Terns on the shingle bar making lots of noise, but not masses else.
