Visits to Hampton and Seasalter

4th December

Another day at Hampton concentrating on photography. Two purple sandpipers were perched nicely on the breakwater, gradually moving back to higher vantage points as the incoming tide pushed them back closer to the beach.



Moved back to Seasalter where several dunlin were roosting on the beach along with 3 sanderling.

More photos from Seasalter.






9th

After breakfast with Santa I went to Seasalter to try and get some close shots of dunlin etc.  It was cold, 2 deg but sunny which tends to blow out the whites in photos.
