I looked through about 1500 Icelandic Black-tailed Godwits at Frampton yesterday and found only 1 juvenile!
Is everybody else finding such low numbers of juveniles?

I had 30 juveniles this morning in about 200 blackwits at Frampton. Don't forget that juvenile waders are always a few weeks behind the adults, many (most?) wont turn up until September.

also heard that it has been a good season in Iceland so many juvs may still be on their way
