Hi all,

Sorry about the pics - at the end of my range for bins and camera - unfortunately no one else present!

Ham Wall today, I think they are green sandpipers as there is no white shoulder and they bobbed continuously?

Common Sandpipers do that a lot too - but the lack of a white shoulder mark is important :t:
