A warm welcome to the Forum James.

I am sure someone with more experience will be along to help with an ID soon. In the meantime I am wondering if it is the Western Sandpiper that has been at Cley for a few days.

On 2nd, 3rd and 4th thoughts I reckon it is a Dunlin!

I hate to disagree with everybody - it's a Dunlin!
