An early morning visit to Rye Harbour LNR to avoid the heat of the day to see the Sandwich Tern colony before they are all gone. A wonderful sight and sound sadly lacking at Dungeness for many years now.
From Parkes Hide with the early morning sun behind us we had superb views of the Terns and some waders.From near Gooders Hide we had nice but distant views of some Little Terns with chicks, Greenshanks, Avocets and 100s of Mediterranean Gulls. Many thanks to John for driving and being our carer today.
