Lesser Yellowlegs-0010
|
1998|A juvenile in the lower Cuckmere Valley (ES) from 25 Septemberto at least 1 October. Originally thought to be a Wood Sandpiper, its true identity provided a considerable, but very pleasant, surprise. Its favoured area seemed to be a small pool adjacent to the east bank of the river,between the lowest oxbow and the sea. It was, however, particularly prone to disturbance here and spent much of its stay in ditches to the west of the river where it was often out of view.|* ×
