I saw the reports from last night about the Long billed Dowitcher at Bowling Green Marsh and had some spare time before work so I made my way there. I got there about 20 mins before it flew to the Clyst. In that time it mainly tucked it's head under it's wing.
I re found the bird at the mud banks off the viewing platform and had great views of it but the bad light ruined any chance of a good shot on the phone! But I did watch it feed with Barwits and Redshanks.

I was suprised to find Blackwits and a barwit at the passage house today. Also present was Redshank, Knot, Curlew, Snipe, Lapwing and many gulls(herring,GBBG and BH) also saw a Kingfisher.

Managed to get an hour away from the fam at Bowling Green Marsh.
I pleased to find Golden Plover and my first Ruff for the year! I also saw my first Avocet for the Autumn.
