A great selection of waders at Marshside today, including one of my favourite birds, a Pectoral Sandpiper, which turned out to be my first ever in Merseyside! It was probably the closest and best view I have ever had of the species, right in front of Nels hide, and the light was perfect, but unfortunately my little camera struggled! Still, normally when I attempt to photograph Pec Sand, I end up with little more than a scenary shot!
