Moments ago, I observed and photographed what I believe to be a Common Ringed Plover.
This is one of those tough ones that will undergo heavy scrutiny. Hence, my cautionary post. I have shared one digiscoped photo with a few seasoned birders and they all confirm that it looks good. At the moment, the bird is not being seen, after it was flushed by a couple of clamers. I am still on the flats, joined now by Pat Lindsay and Shai Mitra and we are trying to relocate the bird.
