A few more waders

Another quick look at Collingham Pits this morning was fairly productive. I met John E and Graham G who'd already done Mons Pool, the Silt Lagoon and Main Pit, so we had a look at Carlton Ferry Farm Pit together, finging a Turnstone, Greenshank, 2 Dunlin, 3-4 Common Sands and 3 Green Sands, plus 5 LRPs (an adult and 4 juvs). Contiuned pumping down of this pit by Tarmac is making it look better and better - it may yet produce the county's first White-rumped Sand!
