Slimbridge 10th August

That morning I had been up to the West Midlands to collect my mother for a short visit to sunny Cardiff, and on our way back, we called at Slimbridge to see what passage waders we could find for her year list. There were many Green Sandpipers (as shown), a few Ruff, and a Spotted Redshank. We also called at Goldcliff, where a few Avocets remained, and a Spoonbill, more Green Sandpipers, a couple of Common Sandpipers and Greenshanks were present.
