White Ruff and Friends

Another visit to Lodmoor on a dull windy afternoon provided the opportunity to see the resident White Ruff again. I say opportunity as Lodmoor is a large area and some days this bird can be so far away and hidden that you are unable to locate it.

In the same area I was able to observe Snipe and Black-tailed Godwit.

Earlier that day I did visit Portland Bill. There was a strong Easterly wind blowing and unfortunately this meant that all sensible birds were tucked away out of sight. 

I was hoping to see Purple Sandpiper, but to no avail.
