Observation details
When I noticed a distinctly cinnamon coloured Plover amongst the Red Caps, my curiosity fast turned to astonishment as a Double Banded Plover was revealed! This sturdy bird seemed much surer of itself than the Red Caps, kindly allowing for a close approach without even flushing! I originally thought there to be only one... imagine my surprise when, upon rediscovering it an hour or so later, it strolled in front of another of its kind! At this time of year, and inland, this is about the last bird I was expecting!
