That's certainly a big increase in Godwit numbers Geoff. Nice to have another Wood Sandpiper as well.
Cheers,
Mark

Don't worry, Greta - for those with dyslexia it could have been Red-legged Partridge! On a serious note it does show that a lot of birders make assumptions that their vernacular is apparent to all . Food for thought for the experienced contributor - how are those new to the joys of birding are expected to know what a gropper is!! Always remember that all of us started somewhere.

Mark, many thanks.
That is so obvious now that I know the answer. I should have been able to work it out for myself !
