Whimbrel - Screetham Lane

Ken Smith found a Whimbrel on Screetham Lane this afternoon. It appeared quite happy feeding in the short grass but unfortunately the local Lapwings were less impressed by its celebrity status and weren't prepared to allow it to stray too close to their territory. It will be interesting to see if it is still there tomorrow.Also plenty of Linnet in the area and a couple of Wheatear.
