I don't know if it had been feeding on the reserve, sadly one of the best scrapes for passage waders, only created a couple of years ago, is in front of the ENEB hide which was vandalised and is currently out of use.
What a bird, their plaintive call makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, always a pleasure to see one.
They do have an amazing call, so much so now even my girlfriend recognises the call whenever one is played on a programme. Shame about the hide I always wonder what sort of person does this
