Another visit to the track from Channel View Farm to the estuary, where the Upland Sandpiper was still on show, it was in a field with cows nearer the farm, only viewable at more of a distance and over a hedge. On the mud-flats was a Pale-bellied Brent Goose which is rare in this area, feeding exclusively on sea lettuce. There were also good numbers of waders and along the brambles were 2 Stonechats.
