Purple Sandpipers
22 Jan 2010
Whilst many upland areas are still snow bound, lower regions and coastal areas are finally free of snow and ice. Improved road conditions have seen more people getting out birding this week but perhaps surprisingly, there have still been relatively few BirdTrack records of Purple Sandpiper, with only 23 records 11-22 January. If you do go birding on the coast over the next few weeks (and whether or not you are fortunate enough to see any of these fantastic birds) please record your sightings in BirdTrack.
Gary Prescott's BIGBY (see 8 January) has gathered pace as the weather has improved; this week he reached southeast England. Follow Gary's progress here.
