News that the Red-necked Phalarope was still present Elmley had me loading up my bike into the car and zipping to Sheppey for my second visit in almost as many days. I was determined not to miss this individual having missed out earlier in the year. When I arrived at the Wellmarsh Hide I was told that it had just flown! Deja vu! I quickly relocated it 'spinning' at the eastern edge of the flood. Sean Huggins pointed out 2x Curlew Sandpipers amongst a fling of Dunlin. A couple of Ruff were also present amongst the Avocets.
On the entrance track, this Skylark, refused to move!
