August 28th
With a moderate SW wind blowing and the weather feeling a bit cooler than of late we walked from Chamber's Wall to Coldharbour and along the seawall before returning via the White Poplars. The adult Baird's Sandpiper was still in its usual place at Coldharbour and attracted a steady stream of admirers.
