Curlew Sandpiper and Little Stints

Our 3rd Curlew Sandpiper of the Autumn (counting my late Summer one as Autumn) has lingered for a 4th day and has been showing well on Black Hole Marsh at times. We still have the Spotted Redshank here, showing most frequently on the Colyford Common scrapes. Clive found a Little Stint on BHM this morning so I popped down in the afternoon to have a look; it was showing distantly but after 30mins or so I saw another one fly in! The 2 stayed fairly close together until early evening. I'll put up some pics (distant) in the next post but for now here are a few of the Curlew Sandpiper:
