Folks,

There was a Greenshank (juvenile? with obvious streaking on its chest and neck 
side) this morning at Penrhyn seen by Phil Straw, his wife and myself. I 
thought it was something else as my somewhat old lesser quality telescope was 
showing its legs as red-brown! Time for a new scope? I remember a similar 
problem with my previous binoculaurs. Anyway, Phil did not throttle me for 
getting him down to see it!

Its apparently a first (in recent times at least) for Penrhyn.

There was also a Curlew Sandpiper and a couple of Sharpies up Sandcliff Creek.

Cheers,

Graham Buchan
