Angle Bay

At Kilpaison, middayish, with the tide well up there was a nice little collection of waders. 56 Dunlin, all but two in summer plumage, 28 Ringed Plover and lone Sanderling and Whimbrel. The small waders were very confiding after a while as they fed and rested on the beach. 2 Sandwich Terns flew into the bay briefly and there was one White Wagtail on the beach. Click on photos for larger images.
