Hi Steve

I think we passed you along the track this afternoon on our way back to the hide.

We saw 2 Wood Sandpipers and a Common Sandpiper from the hide. As we left the hide we could see you heading back that way and we assumed that you had already been to the hide - seems that you hadn't.

Regards,

Colin and Sheila

Hi Colin & Sheila,

Yes it was me and apologoes for not recognising you, it must have been your hat!! :)

I was in the hide at the beginning of my visit with no Sandpipers (of any variety) to report and when I was going home I was looking for the Garden Warbler when I noticed a sandpiper of some sort on the scrape, so I went back into the hide, but sadly it had gone.
