A beautiful day on the Cumbrian coast
Sandwich tern.
There were was a flock of 84 ringed plover and 23 dunlin feeding on a mud bank on the estuary. They were quite large looking birds and are probably high Arctic breeders. Similarly there was a large looking female wheatear nearby which is probably of the Greenland race.
