Observation details
Bird observed & photoed feeding in shallows amongst samphire near the Pacific Golden Plovers. Photoed the bird from a fair distance away, from near the cycleway looking east. It was only in view for a short time before disappearing into the samphire. Although I thought there was something unusual about the bird's bill, I only positively ID'd the bird later that evening when downloading & enlarging the photo.
