Sanderlings still at Easthaven

Some late Sanderlings at Easthaven displaying various stages of breeding plumage, the last photo I'm posting of a Spoonbill unless it comes much closer and a Linnet watching Ron and me while we watched the Spoonbill.

Taken on my Webs count with my SX60 in poor light but as they were fairly close I got this decent photo for the camera which serves the purpose of showing the variation

In front of the Old Harbour today about two hours before high tide, the closest I've seen it
