Decent coverage reveals Middleton wildfowl influx

Heysham Obs
Horrible wet useless weather this morning, not strong enough winds (as yet) to e.g. 'keep' the Little Gull on the outfalls & offshore visibility poor.  Wonder if we will get the Fylde Ring-necked??

Purple Sandpiper - one wooden jetty, then flew to north harbour wall
