first-winter Purple Sandpiper

 Having walked a fair way from Mablethorpe North End to the outfall I was not hopeful of seeing this bird as the steps were being regularly disturbed by dogs and their owners but as I walked around the far side it appeared in the tide wrack on the beach being displaced to the adjacent concrete groin by a dog walker at one stage but it was soon back and catching plenty of prey in the wrack including some small crabs - it was only when I had finished photographing that I realised I had taken all the images on 2000 ISO but with the R6 it really doesn't matter
