Yesterday morning I did a trip to the Eastern Isles were I found this Purple Sandpiper which Is a winter visitor to are shores there has only been a couple of records of Purple Sandpipers here in the Summer maybe it thinks its winter ??.   After work we had a quick walk were we saw 2 Juvenile Cuckoos being
fed by Rock Pipits.
