Buff-breasted sandpipers, still Marloes Mere

The two Buff-breasted sandpiper in the same field at 7.15pm with 17 Ringed plover and 4 Dunlin. Earlier, on a circuit of the peninsula, 3 medium sized plover did a fly around before dropping back into Trehills or West Hooks fields midway down to Martin's Haven, probably Golden plover but silhouetted and silent so can't rule out Dotterel. Checked the fields as best I could but lots of cover, just 2 Curlew. Lots more pipits tonight. Swarms of Craneflies, so plenty of plover and pipit food.
