Whimbrel at Middleton Lakes


A Mid week bird tick, poor Dave was on nights and hadn't been in bed long, but he had told me to text him if anything came up, he picked me up because an Arctic Tern had been reported at Shustoke but there was no sign, I felt like crying because he'd got out of bed for nothing, just felt awful, we then headed to Middleton Lakes hoping the Whimbrel would still be there and they were :) lovely views through bins and scope, and a lifer for me, beautiful birds, happy I got to see them but still feel bad because Dave didn't gain anything because he had already seen Whimbrel this year, won't be waking him again unless it's a hoopoe ;) lmao
