Where are the waders?

I'd been expecting that Collingham Pits would've been awash with scarce waders during my week away, but it appears this has not been the case (fortunately), despite some excellent looking habitat currently present. Indeed, this morning I couldn't even find a Green Sandpiper, making do with 16 LRPs and 9 Ringed Plovers, although amongst the latter was a bird with an orange leg flag - worth following up. The only other thing of note was an adult Yellow-legged Gull.

I'm sure the Wood Sands and Temminck's Stints will starting pouring in soon.
