Buff-Breasted Sandpiper

 

Taken at Draycote Water, Warwickshire, September 1994.

This American Wader attracted many birders to Draycote during its stay. By sitting 30 yards along the Reservoir bank from the bird and waiting, I was able to get unbelievably close-up photos of this bird as it came closer and closer to me. These are probably the best photos I have ever taken.
