Oystercatcher c200
Dunlin c30
Knot c2,000. They were very filghty, couldn't see what was spooking them. But it allowed a thorough inspection of 4,000 legs, no rings.
These are some of the Knot having a mini murmuration. It looked fun, but suspect they weren't doing it for pleasure.
During my afternoon exercise walk, every cloud seemed to have a silver lining.
On my walk to Trumacar store this morning, I was greeted by what was probably the lowest rainbow that I have ever seen. But rainbow it was, and very nice to see.
Hope springs eternal
