I'm leaving Mecox Bay and the Curlew Sandpiper is still present. The bird was feeding near the west edge of the main sandflat when I arrived. At 9:45, it flew off and landed on the large sand island in the bay just north of the flats. It continued feeding here for a bit, but had disappeared around the far side of the island shortly thereafter.
PLEASE NOTE: Southampton Police are on patrol and will ticket cars without the appropriate permit.
Good luck to those who try.
